  ABSTRACT: Introduction: Non-Hodgkin’s malignant lymphoma is found primarily in African children. Prostate localization is a rare entity. We report the case of a secondary prostatic localization of Burkitt lymphoma in a 14-year-old child. Observation: the 14-year-old child NNJ was followed at the Libreville Cancer Institute (ICL) for Burkitt maxillo-facial stage II bilateral Murphy lymphoma. The clinical examination noted an alteration of the general state, total hematuria, a voluminous prostatic mass filling the rectal ampoule. The paraclinical assessment noted renal insufficiency, a prostatic mass on ultrasound. Anatomo-pathological examination of the prostatic biopsy diagnosed Burkitt type non-Hodgkin’s malignant lymphoma. He died a week later. Conclusion: Primary or secondary prostatic lymphoma is rare. Obstructive renal insufficiency is an additional complication that darkens its prognosis by delaying etiological treatment based on polychemotherapy.
