Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Burkitt lymphoma is a highly aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma closely associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and driven by MYC oncogene overexpression. It presents in three clinical forms: endemic, sporadic, and immunodeficiency-associated. Endemic Burkitt lymphoma, prevalent in Africa, typically involves jaw tumors; sporadic cases commonly present with abdominal masses; and immunodeficiency-associated cases occur in patients with HIV or other forms of immune compromise. A major clinical challenge is the development of severe metabolic complications, including lactic acidosis and hypoglycemia, resulting from rapid tumor proliferation and increased metabolic demands, particularly through enhanced glycolysis (the Warburg effect). These complications are often resistant to conventional supportive therapies and become life-threatening without urgent intervention.
PURPOSE: To emphasize the clinical significance of early recognition and management of metabolic complications in Burkitt lymphoma and to examine the role of chemotherapy, particularly rituximab-based regimens, in improving patient outcomes.
METHODS: We conducted a comprehensive literature search across PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar databases through September 2024 using keywords related to rituximab complications in Burkitt lymphoma. Studies were screened according to predefined criteria, focusing on lactic acidosis and hypoglycemia. Only English-language clinical trials, randomized controlled trials, and reviews were included. We excluded articles that did not include Burkitt lymphoma patients or address associated metabolic challenges and treatment-related toxicities.
CONCLUSION: Early diagnosis and prompt chemotherapy initiation are critical for managing tumor burden and associated metabolic derangements in Burkitt lymphoma. While rituximab has significantly improved treatment outcomes, it must be used judiciously to minimize severe adverse effects. Timely intervention is particularly crucial in immunocompromised patients, where disease progression and treatment toxicity may be more severe.
