Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is rare in childhood. It may be favored by acquired immune deficiencies, but the predisposing factors to KS in other children are unclear. DISCUSSION: KS has been reported in only two children and one adult with primary immunodeficiency. We report here a Tunisian child with a Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome who developed KS at the age of 14 months.Entities:
