ABSTRACT

Kaposi’s sarcoma is a neoplasm generally presented in lower extremities in men, around 60 years old, but in the last two decades it has presented in younger patient with HIV, not only with skin affection also mucoses and intern organs. We present a man 44 years old with endemic Kaposi’s sarcoma and HIV.
