Abstract

A 16-year-old girl presented with widespread multiorgan involvement by Burkitt lymphoma including nodular infiltration of the breasts bilaterally. Although non-endemic Burkitt lymphoma rarely involves the breasts, their evaluation should be included when assessing a chest computed tomogram (CT).
