Abstract

This document presents a series of case studies involving patients with Burkitt lymphoma (BL), a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The cases highlight the various symptoms and diagnostic findings associated with BL, including proptosis (bulging of the eye), orbital masses, and facial swelling. The patients were treated with chemotherapy regimens such as R-CHOP and COMP, resulting in remission of the disease in some cases. The document emphasizes the importance of considering lymphoma as a potential diagnosis in young patients presenting with these symptoms. [Extracted from the article]
