title: Letter: Penile Kaposi sarcoma: A case of complete resolution with highly active antiretroviral therapy alone.
abstract: Kaposi sarcoma remains an important cause of morbidity in HIV-infected patients. Regardless of the recent pharmacological progress, treatment of this malignancy is still disappointing. We report the case of a patient with Kaposi sarcoma in an unusual localization, the penis, which completely resolved with highly active antiretroviral therapy alone.
