Abstract:
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.
