title: Primary classic penile Kaposi's sarcoma in an elderly HIV-negative patient: report of a case and review of the literature.
abstract: Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a neoplastic vascular tumor. The case of a 91-year-old HIV-negative and HHV-8-positive with two reddish-purple lesions (one pedunculated) on the inner layer of the prepuce is described. Although primary penile KS is a relatively uncommon lesion in HIV-negative men, dermatologists and urologists should consider this possibility when treating non-specific penile lesions.
