    Author: Larbre JP, Nicolas JF, Collet P, Larbre B, Llorca G.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1991 Mar; 18(3):476-7. PubMed ID: 1856821.
    Abstract:
    Kaposi's sarcoma appeared 8 months after the start of captopril treatment in a 70-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis. A marked reduction of cutaneous and gastric lesions occurred when captopril was stopped. These findings are compared to immunosuppressive drug induced forms of Kaposi's sarcoma.
