Overview of EBV associated Burkitt lymphoma

Burkitt lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, particularly B lymphocytes found in the germinal center. It is named after Denis Parsons Burkitt, the Irish surgeon who first described the disease in 1958 while working in equatorial Africa.The overall cure rate for Burkitt's lymphoma in developed countries is about 90%, but worse in low-income countries. Burkitt's lymphoma is uncommon in adults, where it has a worse prognosis.
