title: Chronic renal failure due to kidney infiltration by Burkitt type lymphoma.
abstract: Chronic renal failure due to lymphomatous infiltration is rare. We report a case of end-stage renal failure due to bilateral massive lymphomatous infiltration confined to the kidneys and pancreas. Renal insufficiency was due to interstitial fibrosis and striking tubular atrophy.
