Burkitt Leukemia With Precursor B-Cell Immunophenotype and Dual Translocation of t(14;18) and t(8;14) in a Child: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Abstract

Background: Burkitt leukemia (BL) with the precursor B-cell immunophenotype is a rarely reported condition. The prognosis of such patients is similar to that of classic BL. However, the combination of chromosomal translocations associated with bcl-2 and c-myc rearrangement has a poor prognosis.
