Primary clinical presentation of malignant lymphoma in the middle ear is rare. One case of African Burkitt's lymphoma involving the mastoid has been reported, but the case herein presented would appear to be the first case of American Burkitt's lymphoma in the literature. American and African varieties have distinct clinical presentations but are histologically identical. Chemotherapy is effective against these aggressive tumors. A 6-year-old boy with the first known case of American Burkitt's lymphoma of the mastoid is presented. He is doing well 23 months from the onset of symptoms.
中耳恶性淋巴瘤的主要临床表现较为罕见。曾有一例非洲伯基特淋巴瘤累及乳突的病例报道，但本文所呈现的病例似乎是文献中首例美国伯基特淋巴瘤。美国型和非洲型有不同的临床表现，但组织学上是相同的。化疗对这些侵袭性肿瘤有效。本文介绍了一名6岁男孩，他是首例已知的乳突美国伯基特淋巴瘤患者。自症状出现23个月以来，他情况良好。
