Abstract
In the head and neck region, lymphomas are the most frequently seen malignant lesions after squamous cell carcinoma. Burkitt’s lymphoma is a malignant, highly aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. It is a B-cell type that generally presents in the oral region as a rapidly growing mass, which is usually misdiagnosed as odontogenic infection. Imaging and histology play a crucial role in the diagnosis. More than 100 craniomaxillofacial cases have been reported in published studies and have had a variety of stemming locations, manifestations, complications, and other characteristics. The present case report introduces a unique case of BL originating in the maxillary sinuses bilaterally.
