Burkitt’s lymphoma is an aggressive, rapidly progressive, non-Hodgkin B cell lymphoma occurring within humans. Burkitt’s lymphoma is primarily associated with genetic rearrangement of c-MYC proto-oncogene, commonly encountered within germinal centre derived B lymphocytes. Characteristically, Burkitt’s lymphoma demonstrates chromosomal translocation t(8;14) between c-MYC situated upon chromosome 8q24 and IGH discerned upon chromosome 14q32.
