title: Primary gastrointestinal Kaposi's sarcoma in a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
abstract: Gastrointestinal involvement by Kaposi's sarcoma in patients with cutaneous or lymph node involvement is common. Since the advent of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome in 1981, primary gastrointestinal involvement, i.e., without skin or lymph node involvement, has not been adequately documented. We describe a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome and primary gastrointestinal involvement by Kaposi's sarcoma.
