We present a case of AIDS with Kaposisarcoma in the oropharynx. In this case chemotherapy and radiotherapy were used with good response. Because of the clinical features of the disease otolaryngologists will be involved more and more in the management of AIDS disease. The diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis of the following three stages are described: serological identification of antibodies against HTLV-III without clinical symptoms, AIDS-related complex, full-blown-AIDS. There is no inevitable transition between these stages. The mode of infection is similar to serum-hepatitis.
