title: [Pulmonary localization of Kaposi's sarcoma].
abstract: The authors describe a case of a 61 year old man suffering from Kaposi's sarcoma with pulmonary involvement associated with a hairy cell leukaemia. The numerous associations with Kaposi's sarcoma are reviewed and the circumstances of the unexpected appearance of this disease, placing it in the group of opportunistic diseases. The prognosis is totally different according to whether it is an isolated Kaposi's sarcoma without visceral localisation or to a form with polyvisceral involvement and associated with another neoplasm or immunodepression.
