ABSTRACT

La afectación ovárica como debut de un linfoma de Burkitt sin enfermedad extraovárica detectable es anecdótica, por lo que habitualmente no se incluye como hipótesis diagnóstica tras el hallazgo de una tumoración ovárica. Su desconocimiento lleva a realizar un tratamiento equivocado que puede llegar a comprometer el deseo reproductivo de la paciente. Presentamos el caso de una paciente que presenta un linfoma de Burkitt con afectación ovárica como manifestación inicial. La paciente desarrolló una progresión sistemática excepcionalmente rápida. A propósito de este caso y de su inusual evolución, revisamos la literatura existente.


Ovarian involvement as the initial manifestation of a Burkitt lymphoma without detectable extra-ovarian disease is rare, which is why it is usually not included in the differential diagnosis when an ovarian tumor is detected. A missed diagnosis will lead to the wrong treatment being given, and this can compromise any future reproductive wishes of the patient. In this article, a patient presents a Burkitt lymphoma with ovarian involvement as an initial manifestation and an unusually rapid systemic progression of the disease. Prompted by this case and its unusual course, we reviewed the existing literature.
