Overview
Kaposi's sarcoma may be classified according to the clinical setting of the disease into five subtypes include Classic Kaposi's sarcoma, African cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma, African lymphadenopathic Kaposi's sarcoma, Immunosuppression-associated Kaposi's sarcoma, and AIDS-associated Kaposi's sarcoma.
Classification
- According to the clinical setting of the disease, clinical presentation, epidemiology, and prognosis Kaposi's sarcoma may be classified into five different subtypes[1][2][3]
- African cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma and African lymphadenopathic Kaposi's sarcoma could be classified under the term of endemic Kaposi's sarcomas.
Types | Characteristics |
