INTRODUCTION Kidney transplant recipients are at increased risk of cancers, most frequently skin cancers, and in some regions, Kaposi sarcoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We sought to investigate the associate of the most frequent malignancies among our patients with human leukocyte antigens (HLAs). MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective study on 44 kidney allograft recipients who ha...
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to describe the epidemiological and clinical profile and the treatment and natural history of AIDS-related Kaposi sarcoma in 3 major dermatology departments in Lomé (Togo). PATIENTS AND METHOD This retrospective, descriptive study was based on the records of patients with AIDS-related Kaposi sarcoma from January 2005 through October 2011. RESULTS Duri...

In the early 1980’s, KS was commonly associated with the AIDS epidemic. Four ...
The linkage of Kaposi sarcoma (KS) to infection by a novel human herpesvirus (Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus [KSHV]) is one of the great successes of contemporary biomedical research and was achieved by using advanced genomic technologies in a manner informed by a nuanced understanding of epidemiology and clinical investigation. Ongoing efforts to understand the molecular mechanisms by w...
Acroangiodermatitis or pseudo-Kaposi sarcoma is an angioproliferative, self-limited entity that includes a group of diseases, congenital or acquired, with cutaneous lesions similar to Kaposi sarcoma (KS). This term can lead to confusion because it comprises several entities that are completely different, nonetheless, it has an important clinical value as it guides the diagnosis and management o...
Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus 8, is the etiologic agent underlying Kaposi sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma, and multicentric Castleman's disease. This human gammaherpesvirus was discovered in 1994 by Drs. Yuan Chang and Patrick Moore. Today, there are over five thousand publications on KSHV and its associated malignancies. In this article, we re...
