title: Presentation of Kaposi's sarcoma in the acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
abstract: Since the first reports of unusual opportunistic infections and Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS) in homosexual men in New York and California, attention has been focused on a new epidemic: The Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). One manifestation of this disease is Kaposi's Sarcoma. Usually a rare tumor, it occurs with a high incidence in patients with AIDS. In this paper Kaposi's Sarcoma as it appears in AIDS will be examined.
