A high-grade malignant lymphoma that includes both Burkitt tumor (BURKITT LYMPHOMA) and other lymphomas previously designated undifferentiated non-Burkitt type.

The non-Burkitt type exhibits greater nuclear variation and less evidence of cellular maturation with a correspondingly lesser degree of differentiation.
