[Pediatric burkitt lymphoma primarily involving the adenoids: a case report and literature review].

Burkitt Lymphoma（BL） is a highly aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by extremely rapid proliferation and specific genetic alterations, representing the fastest-growing human malignancy. Early detection is associated with high treatment success rates, while advanced stages carry a poor prognosis. Our department admitted a pediatric patient with BL primarily originating in the adenoids. The child was initially hospitalized for adenoid hypertrophy and underwent surgical resection, with routine postoperative pathology showing no significant abnormalities. Three weeks postoperatively, the patient was readmitted due to left facial and periorbital pain. A series of examinations ultimately confirmed the diagnosis of lymphoma. Following aggressive treatment, the patient achieved disease stabilization and exhibited good recovery.
