Burkitt lymphoma presenting as cecum mass and spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome with hypercalcemia

Abstract

Abstract Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) could be primarily presented with various symptoms. We reported a woman with abdominal pain and mass who later developed spontaneous TLS with hypercalcemia, and was diagnosed with BL. Clinicians should suspect BL in case of any abdominal mass, especially with an aggressive course, to avoid further complications.
