Presentation of Kaposi's sarcoma in the acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
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.
