Kaposi's sarcoma immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome: A forgotten entity nowadays.

The appearance of antiviral therapy has led to a change in the prognosis and clinical manifestations of patients with human immunodeficiency virus infections and Kaposi's sarcoma. However, there are still countries in which access is inadequate and the disease progresses toward disseminated forms with an unfavorable outcome. We present two patients who presented with skin lesions that progressed for a month, compatible with disseminated Kaposi's sarcoma in the context of HIV. One month after starting treatment, they were admitted for multi-organ failure associated with an Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome and eventually died.
