[Kaposi sarcoma of the glans penis with meatal obstruction. Case report and literature review].
Kaposi sarcoma was first described by Moritz Kaposi 1872. It is a disease of the reticuloendothelial system. Preferred manifestations are mainly skin, mucosa and gastrointestinal tract. Location of penile glans with meatal obstruction has been mentioned to date in 4 cases. We report a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome who presented a meatal obstruction caused by Kaposi-sarcoma. In this patient with a survival time of 8 months meatotomy and locoregional radiotherapy was an adequate therapy.
