Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is characterized by cutaneous lesions that are often papular and present variably depending on the stage of progression. We describe a patient with a fibroma-like nodule, a lesion not commonly associated with KS. Previously observed in lymphedematous human immunodeficiency virus-associated KS, the occurrence of this nodule in the absence of chronic lymphedema suggests an alternative etiology.
卡波西肉瘤(KS)的特征是皮肤病变,通常为丘疹状,且根据疾病进展阶段的不同而表现各异。我们描述了一名患有纤维瘤样结节的患者,这种病变通常与卡波西肉瘤无关。此前曾在与人类免疫缺陷病毒相关的淋巴水肿性卡波西肉瘤中观察到这种情况,而在没有慢性淋巴水肿的情况下出现这种结节提示存在其他病因。
