Overview
The prognosis varies with the age, children have the most favorable prognosis. Burkitt's lymphoma in children is associated with a 5 year survival rate of 90%. The presence of metastasis in bone marrow or CNS is associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with Burkitt's lymphoma.
Complications
Common complications of burkitt's lymphoma include:
- Disruption of teeth[1]
- Partial obstruction of airway[2]
- Ulceration and drainage[3]
- Tumor lysis syndrome[4]
Prognosis
- In children, prognosis is good with survival rates >90%[5]
- In adults, prognosis is poor, with a 5-year survival rate of 50% and is even worse with bone marrow or CNS involvement (>30% 5-year survival rate).
