Disseminated Kaposi's sarcoma.
Kaposi's Sarcomas (KS) have been associated with many conditions and also known as a typical complication of immunosuppression. It should be considered as an important differential diagnosis in skin lesions of patients after solid organ transplantation. This is a report of a 61-year-old man, who presented with disseminated KS and a history of renal transplantation. We suggest systemic evaluation and visceral assessment in patients with Cutaneous KS.
