Kaposi's sarcoma after immunosuppressive therapy with prednisone.

R A Hoshaw, R A Schwartz.   

Abstract

Immunosuppressed patients are at risk of acquiring Kaposi's sarcoma. We describe here a 66-year old man with bronchial asthma who was receiving immunosuppressive medication (prednisone given for systemic effect) and in whom Kaposi's sarcoma developed. The literature on this subject is reviewed.
