Abstract
Five cases of Kaposi's Sarcoma are presented to highlight the clinical course of the African or Endemic Kaposi's Sarcoma and point out the differences against the Epidemic form of Kaposi's Sarcoma common in AIDS patients in the United States and Europe. Groups at risk of developing the Epidemic form of Kaposi's Sarcoma are well identified in the United States whereas there is no special group at risk of developing the Endemic form in Africa. Genital Kaposi's Sarcoma of the Endemic form, a rare site for the disease is also presented. Three clinical and histological types of the endemic form are described.
