Kaposi sarcoma of penis and genitalia: a disease of our times.
Penile and/or genital involvement may be an early manifestation of AIDS-related Kaposi sarcoma. Diagnosis may be suggested by history, and epidemiologic and sociologic data. Precise diagnosis can be documented by the urologist by early recognition and biopsy of genital lesions. Early awareness and treatment may control this potentially virulent disease.
