Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a low-grade mesenchymal angioproliferative disease, mostly observed in immune compromised patients. KS is mostly encountered in HIV-positive or organ transplant patients. The drugs causing immunosuppression have also been associated with KS. Here, we present a KS experience associated with rituximab-based therapy.
