Persons with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) are subject to a host of pathologic entities secondary to a depressed immune system. Kaposi's sarcoma frequently presents in this immunocompromised population and, therefore, diagnosis seems clinically straightforward. However, because of the prevalence of a strikingly similar infectious disease known as bacillary angiomatosis, skin biopsy of one or more lesions is crucial.
获得性免疫缺陷综合征（艾滋病）患者由于免疫系统受损，易患一系列继发病症。卡波西肉瘤在这群免疫功能低下的人群中很常见，因此，临床诊断似乎很简单。然而，由于一种被称为杆菌性血管瘤病的极为相似的传染病很普遍，对一个或多个病变进行皮肤活检至关重要。
