title: [Association of Kaposi's sarcoma with acute myeloblastic leukemia. Apropos of a case].
abstract: The authors report the case of a 73-year-old woman from Central Europe with acute myeloid leukemia and Kaposi's sarcoma. The two diseases were discovered simultaneously. The inefficacy of leukemia chemotherapy and the widespread cutaneous diffusion of the Kaposi's sarcoma explain the unfavorable outcome. The different pathogenic hypotheses which can account for the association of these two different malignancies are reviewed.
