  • Title: [Kaposi's sarcoma and AIDS].
    Author: Reich H, Hollwich F, Uthoff D.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1985 Jul; 187(1):1-8. PubMed ID: 2999500.
    Abstract:
    Kaposi's sarcoma occurs as a complication in numerous cases of AIDS, the much-discussed acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Considering the latter's near-epidemic incidence, the clinical and histological features of Kaposi's sarcoma are recalled to mind. Hitherto only sporadically recorded in non-African countries, the disease is now more frequently observed also in the USA and Central Europe. In textbooks of ophthalmology Kaposi's sarcoma has so far been grossly neglected. Therefore, on the basis of historical facts taken exclusively from original papers, Kaposi's sarcoma is reconsidered with special reference to ophthalmological aspects.
