Abstract

Introduction: Kaposi's sarcoma (MK) is most likely caused by human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8) which develops particularly in individuals infected with HIV. This disease causes purplish or brownish tumors on the skin. Other organs can be affected, such as the mucous membranes, and the viscera. The goal of our study is to describe the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic profile of this disease. Chemotherapy has big interest in Kaposi sarcoma.
