Comments:
Typical "starry sky" pattern in a classic Burkitt lymphoma involving the large bowel. The background consists of diffuse sheets of medium-sized lymphocytes with minimal cellular pleomorphism. The "starry sky" pattern is imparted by numerous pale tingible-body macrophages with ingested nuclear debris.
