Epidemic Kaposi's sarcoma is the neoplasm most frequently manifested in infection by the human immunodeficiency virus. Its prevalence is considerably higher among homosexual males than among intravenous drug users with practically exclusive infection in this sex. Four cases of Kaposi's sarcoma in women with the human immunodeficiency virus are described. Two of these subjects were intravenous drug users and the other two were heterosexually promiscuous as the only conduct of risk for acquiring infection by the human immunodeficiency virus. Kaposi's sarcoma was the form of presentation of the syndrome of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in these four patients.
流行性卡波西肉瘤是人类免疫缺陷病毒感染中最常出现的肿瘤。其在男同性恋者中的患病率显著高于静脉吸毒者，且实际上几乎仅在该性别中出现感染。本文描述了4例感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的女性卡波西肉瘤病例。其中2名患者为静脉吸毒者，另外2名患者有异性乱交行为，这是她们感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的唯一风险行为。卡波西肉瘤是这4名患者获得性免疫缺陷综合征的表现形式。
