ABSTRACT
The Burkitt-like lymphoma is considered a highly aggressive B-cell lymphoma, with a
high proliferative rate. Presentation with extensive mass intestinal involvement is rare
and poorly documented in the literature. We report the case of a young adult with the
Burkitt-like lymphoma, and presenting extensive infiltration of the right colon, who
receives chemotherapy treatment associated with administration of anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, achieves complete remission of the illness and consolidation
with intensive chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation. Currently the
patient is asymptomatic and without treatment.
