    Abstract:
    Abstract Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) in women with HIV infection is observed to have increased from recent studies. To understand the gender-related differences of AIDS-KS in Nigeria, we conducted a prospective study of the clinical, virologic, and immunologic features of newly diagnosed AIDS-KS patients. Prevalence was similar in both genders. There were differences in the distribution of the lesions and the CD4 count in women was significantly lower.
