Kaposi's sarcoma--an overview.
Although Kaposi's sarcoma is a rare malignant disease of unknown etiology, when it does occur, it is most often found in males on the feet and legs and is one of the most common malignant tumors of the foot. The lesions are usually painless, depending on the location. Although vinblastine sulfate (Velban) and vincristine sulfate (Oncovin) have both achieved temporary success in treating Kaposi's sarcoma, most authors agree that roentgen therapy is the treatment of choice.
