It ,sometimes , becomes very difficult for the pathologist to differentiate between burkitt's lymphoma and diffuse large B cell lymphoma.They can be differentiated only by the fact that there is a very high proliferative fraction seen in patients with burkitt's lymphoma(i.e.,essentially 100% of tumor cells are in cycle) caused by c-myc deregulation.<ref>Harrison's principles of internal medicine 18th edition</ref>


==Overview==
Burkitt's lymphoma must be differentiated from other diseases  such as [[Hodgkin's lymphoma]], [[diffuse large B cell lymphoma]], [[follicular lymphoma]], [[Mucosa-Associated Lymphatic Tissue lymphoma]](MALT), [[small cell lymphocytic lymphoma]], and [[mantle cell lymphoma]] (MCL).
