Abstract
Burkitt’s Lymphoma arises from mature B cells and is a highly aggressive neoplasm but potentially responds to intensive combination chemotherapy. Primary thyroid lymphomas are rare and Burkitt lymphoma of thyroid is still rarer. We present the case of middle-aged lady with rapidly enlarging neck mass diagnosed as Burkitt’s Lymphoma post hemithyroidectomy. She received systemic combination chemotherapy and is in remission at a follow up of 1 year.
