Kaposi's sarcoma in patients with AIDS: sex, transmission mode, and race.

H W Haverkos1, D P Drotman, W M Morgan.   

Abstract

We review epidemiologic studies aimed at identifying the cause(s) or cofactors for AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). The epidemiology of AIDS-related KS in the United States differs from that of other forms of KS. One important feature of the epidemiology of AIDS-related KS is that its occurrence by race is strikingly disproportional. We believe this maldistribution can shed light on recent discussions concerning the cause of AIDS-related KS, and we propose further studies to elucidate the etiology of AIDS-related KS.
