title: Conjunctival Kaposi's sarcoma in a nonimmunocompromised patient.
abstract: METHODS
  We report a case of conjunctival Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) in a nonimmunocompromised patient. The resected tumour recurred locally. No additional lesion was seen 20 months after the second surgery.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Before onset of AIDS, few reports described primary conjunctival KS, although it has been described in other immunocompromised disease stages, i.e. systemic KS.
