Immunosuppression-Associated Kaposi Sarcoma

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Immunosuppression-associated Kaposi sarcoma resembles that of classic Kaposi sarcoma; however, the site of presentation is more variable. Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a tumor caused by Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8), also known as Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). It was originally described by Moritz Kaposi (KA-po-she), a Hungarian dermatologist practicing at the University of Vienna in 1872.
