title: [Burkitt's lymphoma presenting as ovarian tumor].
abstract: Burkitt's lymphoma is a rapidly progressing tumor, which could be cured in 60-80% of cases. Its infiltration of the ileo-cecal region often spreads to the ovaries, though primary ovarian manifestation is also common. By presenting our case of a 27-year-old nulliparous patient with primary ovarian Burkitt's lymphoma, we would like to draw attention to its diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties.
