摘　　要：Background: Burkitt’s lymphoma of the testis (TBL) is a rare and extremely aggressive malignant usually diagnosed in front of a testicular mass. We describe an interesting single case of TBL managed by a combined multimodal approach with a review of the literature. Case Report: A patient aged 69-year-old male, newly hypertensive, who presented with a twelve-month history of right testis progressive painful scrotal swelling, which worsens following a motorbike accident. Clinical examination revealed a large tender mass in an erythematous right scrotal bursa. A scrotal ultrasound showed a right heterogenous intra-testicular mass. The patient underwent unilateral (right) radical orchiectomy. Histopathological examination revealed presence of monomorphic lymphoid cells, with moderate to increased size, dissociated inconstantly by macrophages consistent with a Burkitt’s-like non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. After surgery, the patient was transferred to oncologist for adjuvant chemotherapy. Conclusion: A testicular mass is a usual circumstance for the discovery of a primary tumour of the testicle. Burkitt’s testicular lymphoma is a rare tumour whose diagnosis is based on histological findings. There are non-consensual etiological or predisposing factors. The treatment depends imperatively on the stage of the disease. Therapeutic modalities relay on in surgical excision, chemotherapy and radiation therapy but the accurate procedures are not standardized.Background: Burkitt’s lymphoma of the testis (TBL) is a rare and extremely aggressive malignant usually diagnosed in front of a testicular mass.
