title: HIV Associated Intra-oral Burkitt's Lymphoma: A Case Report.
abstract: Immunodeficiency associated Burkitt's lymphoma is the most common in patients with HIV/AIDS. It accounts for 30-40% of Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and may be the first sign of underlying immunosuppression. This report illustrates a case of Burkitt's lymphoma of maxillary alveolar ridge, which was the first manifestation in an HIV positive patient, with a brief discussion on clinicopathologic features, aetiopathogenesis and treatment.
