The initial diagnosis was irreversible pulpitis of the lower right second molar (LR7) and despite having an extraction of the affected tooth her problems persisted. The patient also developed pain in the spine and limbs, accompanied by lethargy and weakness.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>After seeing multiple different practitioners, she was referred to her local Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department. Cross-sectional imaging was requested and demonstrated disseminated malignancy. Histology following open trans-oral biopsy revealed a diagnosis of Burkitt\u2019s lymphoma prompting an urgent haematology referral, and she successfully completed a chemotherapy regimen. This case highlights the importance of a thorough diagnostic process in the presence of persistent and\/or atypical symptoms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa557","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,14]],"date-time":"2020-12-14T12:56:09Z","timestamp":1607950569000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Burkitt\u2019s lymphoma: an unexpected cause of dental pain"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2021","author":[{"given":"William D","family":"Parker","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Head and Neck Unit, Royal Derby Hospital, Derby, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keith","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Head and Neck Unit, Royal Derby Hospital, Derby, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1016","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(19820301)49:5<1016::AID-CNCR2820490527>3.0.CO;2-H","article-title":"The American Burkitt\u2019s lymphoma registry: eight years\u2019 experience","volume":"49","author":"Levine","year":"1982","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.17245\/jdapm.2016.16.1.1","article-title":"Diagnosis and treatment of abnormal dental pain","volume":"16","author":"Fukuda","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Dent Anesth Pain Med"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref3","first-page":"192","article-title":"Endodontic periapical lesion-induced mental nerve paresthesia","volume":"12","author":"Shadmehr","year":"2015","journal-title":"Dent Res J (Isfahan)"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"558","DOI":"10.1309\/EQJR3D3V0CCQGP04","article-title":"Histopathology and immunohistochemistry in distinguishing Burkitt lymphoma from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with very high proliferation index and with or without a starry-sky pattern: a comparative study with EBER and FISH","volume":"128","author":"Chuang","year":"2007","journal-title":"Am J Clin Pathol"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"773","DOI":"10.1007\/s11845-015-1288-3","article-title":"Burkitt leukaemia\/lymphoma: R-CODOX-M\/R-IVAC remains gold standard treatment in BL","volume":"185","author":"Smyth","year":"2016","journal-title":"Ir J Med Sci"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref6","volume-title":"Office for National Statistics","author":"Public Health England","year":"2017"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1186\/s13005-018-0186-0","article-title":"Clinical presentation and characteristics of lymphoma in the head and neck region","volume":"15","author":"Storck","year":"2019","journal-title":"Head Face Med"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1777","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(19840415)53:8<1777::AID-CNCR2820530828>3.0.CO;2-7","article-title":"Jaw involvement in American Burkitt's lymphoma","volume":"53","author":"Sariban","year":"1984","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"240","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2008.09.008","article-title":"Burkitt lymphoma of the oral cavity: an atypical presentation","volume":"107","author":"Balasubramaniam","year":"2009","journal-title":"Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod"},{"key":"2021030600412562000_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"992","DOI":"10.1016\/0278-2391(85)90020-5","article-title":"Selective anesthesias of the inferior alveolar nerve in leukemia and lymphoma","volume":"43","author":"Barrett","year":"1985","journal-title":"J Oral Maxillofac Surg"}],"container-title":["Journal of Surgical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2021\/2\/rjaa557\/36416319\/rjaa557.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2021\/2\/rjaa557\/36416319\/rjaa557.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,6]],"date-time":"2021-03-06T00:42:01Z","timestamp":1614991321000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa557\/6135014"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,1]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa557","relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-8812"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2042-8812","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2021,2]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,1]]},"article-number":"rjaa557"}}
