Abstract

The patch stage of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) has been recently recognized as histologically distinct from that seen in well-developed violaceous nodules of KS. We report a patient with patch stage KS and its angioendothelioma-like histology. The presence of glomerulus-like vascular structures is a newly described feature.
