Core Tip
Core Tip: Primary prostate Burkitt's lymphoma is a rare and aggressive condition with a poor prognosis. Combined with the analysis of the cases indexed in PubMed and RCA, Only three reports have previously documented Burkitt's lymphoma of the prostate. Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is an essential diagnostic and therapeutic tool in managing primary prostate Burkitt's lymphoma. Clinicians should remain vigilant and thoroughly combine physical examination, imaging and test results when encountering patients of younger age with small prostate size but a rapid progression of lower urinary tract symptoms.
