  • Title: Kaposi's sarcoma and angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy.
    Author: Varsano S, Manor Y, Steiner Z, Griffel B, Klajman A.
    Journal: Cancer; 1984 Oct 15; 54(8):1582-5. PubMed ID: 6478399.
    Abstract:
    Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy (AILD) are exceptionally rare neoplastic diseases, although the former has recently been more frequently reported among certain populations, and is lately a topic for extensive medical and investigational interest. This case is unique in that it describes an association between KS and AILD. Such an association raises the question of a common pathogenic mechanism. The authors believe that predisposition to each of both diseases may be related to acquired immune deficiency which in turn may be induced by specific viral infections.
