In 1872, Moritz Kaposi, a Hungarian dermatologist, described five men with aggressive “idiopathic multiple pigmented sarcomas of the skin.”1 One patient died of gastrointestinal bleeding 15 months after the initial appearance of the skin lesions, and an autopsy showed visceral lesions in the lungs and the gastrointestinal tract.

Pulmonary KS may occur in up to 20 to 25 per cent of patients with cutaneous KS. The presenting symptoms of pulmonary KS are indistinguishable from those of opportunistic pathogens that cause pneumonia. It most frequently presents with the symptoms of cough or dyspnea; however, fever, hemoptysis, and stridor have been reported to occur secondary to ...

Cancer, 1966
Sixty three patients with Kaposi's sarcoma (1935–1963) have been reviewed. Of this group 18 patients died of a secondary primary. The second primaries included 5 cases of Hodgkin's disease, 3 of lymphosarcoma, 3 of carcinoma of the colon and one each of multiple myeloma, malignant melanoma, carcinoma of the prostate, carcinoma of the tongue, carcinoma ...

IN 1872 Kaposi1 described a peculiar pigmented multiple sarcoma of the skin that still defies clinicians and pathologists. Almost 800 cases have been reported in the literature, and many of these have been studied intensively by all methods now available: bacteriologic tests; tissue tests; transplantation; attempted induction by carcinogens ...

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus and Kaposi's sarcoma
Microbes and Infection, 2000Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is present in all epidemiologic forms of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). The KSHV genome contains several open reading frames which are potentially implicated in the development of KS. Some are unique to KSHV; others are homologous to cellular genes.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1973
ABSTRACT A review of Kaposi's sarcoma and 2 case abstracts are presented. There are many conflicting theories about the pathogenesis of this multiple hemorrhagic sarcomatosis of the skin and internal organs. Clinically, in the adult, it may run a relatively benign course, though subject to recurrences.

Pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2003Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a disease characterized by proliferative vascular lesions, which almost invariably contain the KS-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also called human herpesvirus 8. KSHV is a lymphotrophic and angiotrophic herpesvirus, whose genome encodes several proteins involved in proliferation, antiapoptotic functions, and inflammation.

Before the first clinical descriptions of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) was a rare tumor among Western populations, occurring in only 0.02% to 0.06% per 100,000 people.1 In a typical dermatology practice, it was unusual for a busy practitioner to see more than one such case every 5 years. By June and July of 1981,
