[Kaposi's sarcoma simulating a splenolymphatic lymphoma, toxoplasmosis, and terminal cryptococcus infection (author's transl)].
The authors report a case of Kaposi's sarcome (K.S.) characterized by the small degree of cutaneous involvement as opposed to splenic and lymphatic invasion, lymphoplasmocytic infiltration of the bone marrow, and opportunistic infections (toxoplasmosis, and cryptococcosis). The rapid mortal outcome and the anatomoclinical characteristics of the K.S. enable this case to be classified as one of the rare types of malignant K.S. with pseudo-cryptoccosis features.
