Burkitt’s lymphoma is a high-grade, extremely aggressive form of B-cell non Hodgkin lymphoma with a very fast replication time (tumour doubling time of around 25 hours). The three forms of Burkitt’s lymphoma are documented which include endemic, sporadic, and immunodeficiency associated. It is enormously rare with less than 30 cases reported till date. Primary cardiac lymphoma is a rare cardiac neoplasm. The most common type is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Diagnosis is usually late and with poor prognosis. Primary cardiac lymphoma is more common in immunodeficient patients. This is a case of primary cardiac Burkitt’s lymphoma which was diagnosed in a 58-year-old immunocompetent male. The patient’s two-dimensional echocardiography and plain Computed Tomography (CT) scan of the chest revealed presence of massive pericardial effusion with mild to moderate bilateral pleural effusion. Cardiac Positron Emission Tomography (PET) CT revealed a soft tissue mass at atrioventricular groove which indicated either pericardial lymphoma or inflammatory serositis. The patient was opted for surgery, but the mass was noted involving the free wall of right ventricle including the diaphragmatic surface which extended onto atrioventricular groove and base of right atrial appendage. Thus, a decision to not proceed further with surgical repair was made. The histopathological and cytogenetic findings confirmed the presence of Burkitt's lymphoma. Later, it was discovered that the patient died within one month of diagnosis.
