title: Burkitt-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia--presentation of an unusual case: clinical features and diagnostic criteria.
abstract: An unusual case of a 61-year-old woman with Burkitt-like acute lymphoblastic leukemic (ALL) is presented. The disease was confined to peripheral blood and bone marrow. Clinical features and diagnostic criteria as reviewed from the literature are described. Burkitt-like ALL seems to be a separate entity in the spectrum of B-cell diseases.
