Abstract

A 4-year-old boy is reported with Burkitt lymphoma involving bilateral maxilla and mandible. The initial clinical diagnosis was dentoalveolar abscess since the patient had multiple carious teeth in relation to jaw swellings. The incisional biopsy was performed and histopathological analysis, including immunohistochemistry, confirmed Burkitt’s lymphoma. The patient was referred to National Cancer Institute for further management. The occurrence of Burkitt lymphoma involving all four quadrants of the maxilla and mandible is unusual.
