Abstract
We report a case of Kaposi's sarcoma in a patient who underwent autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) for multiple myeloma. Four months after ABMT he presented with numerous asymptomatic, dark blue and purplish macules and nodules on the trunk and lower extremities. Biopsy revealed the typical histologic pattern of Kaposi's sarcoma. The patient died due to disseminated Kaposi's sarcoma while in complete remission of his hematologic malignancy.Entities:
