[Kaposis sarcoma in a renal graft].
Kaposi's sarcoma is an infrequent tumor of unknown cause, but with a higher impact in immune depressed individuals, particularly in HIV and transplant patients. It usually appears as a benign cutaneous lesions, while the invasive visceral form is uncommon with malignant evolution and wit rare remission. We present a patient with a Kaposi's sarcoma localised in a renal graft and bad response even when immuno suppression was discontinued.
