Endemic Burkitt's lymphoma: a polymicrobial disease?

Rosemary Rochford1, Martin J Cannon, Ann M Moormann.   

Abstract

Endemic Burkitt's lymphoma is the most common childhood cancer in equatorial Africa. Two ubiquitous human pathogens are thought to be responsible for the aetiology of this disease: Epstein-Barr virus and Plasmodium falciparum malaria. New data suggest how these two pathogens might interact to result in disease and provide insights into the emerging concepts of polymicrobial disease pathogenesis.
