Abstract:
A young female patient was admitted for clarification of a space-occupying ovarian situation. Histological analysis gave the finding of a highly malignant NHL of the Burkitt type. In the further course of the disease bicytopenia developed. Bone mark analysis revealed a B-AII. FAB L3 which can be considered as the leukemic equivalent of the Burkitt lymphoma. In spite of chemotherapy the patient died as a consequence of a sepsis.
