Abstract

HIV infection Kaposi sarcoma Systemic form
Epidemic or AIDS-associated kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an opportunistic polyclonal tumor associated with viral infection. The early presentation of KS typically involves mucocutaneous lesions and lymphadenopathy. More advanced disease can affect the lungs and other organs. We report a dramatic diffuse form of KS in treatment-naïve patient.
