Overview
Burkitt's lymphoma may be classified according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification into 3 clinical variants. The clinical variants are endemic Burkitt's lymphoma, sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma, and immunodeficiency-associated Burkitt's lymphoma.
Classification
Burkitt's lymphoma may be classified according to WHO classification into 3 clinical variants:
- Endemic Burkitt's lymphoma [1]
- Sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma[2]
- Immunodeficiency-associated Burkitt's lymphoma[3]
It is almost impossible to differentiate these three clinical variants based on histology (i.e. microscopic appearance) or immunophenotype.
