Deskripsi
Kaposi`s sarcoma (KS) is a tumor of endothelial origin, running a protracted clinical course. Four main types of KS have been described namely classical, endemic African, iatrogenic, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) associated. There has been a spurt in the cases of KS after the HIV epidemic. We report a case of Kaposi sarcoma in a non-HIV elderly Kashmiri male and review the literature.
