[Maxillofacial location of Burkitt's lymphoma in Africa (apropos of 7 cases)].
Omnipresent disease, Burkitt's lymphoma is the most frequent non-Hodgkin malignant lymphoma in children (NHML). As a matter of course, maxillo-facial lesions are not exclusive, as we thought thirty years ago, but it is evident that they are extremely frequent in tropical areas. They strike all facial quadrants. Their aspects are always impressive, they perfectly diminish by a well applied polychemotherapy.
