Abstract

The
Gastrointestinal system is one of the most common places for extranodal
Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. On the other hand, Non-Hodgkin lymphomas have been seen
less in the small intestine. We present here a rare condition in the literature
which is a case of bilateral adrenal mass and Burkitt lymphoma with small
intestine origin. Eleven  years old male patient applied to pediatric emergency service with acute abdomen. In the abdominal
USG examination intussusception and bilateral adrenal mass had seen. In a surgical operation, five lesions were seen in the small intestine. Partial small intestine resection was performed.
In the pathological examination of the resection material Burkitt Lymphoma with the origin of the small intestine diagnosed to
the patient. Prognosis of NHL with the origin of the small intestine, adrenal mass and come with an acute abdomen depends on the histological type and grade.  He was started on NHL-BFM95 chemotherapy and had a good
clinical response and he was remained in complete remission for two months
after completion of chemotherapy. Bilateral adrenal mass remains a rare form of
Burkitt lymphoma and care must be taken in ruling out other causes of bilateral
adrenal masses.
