Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a malignancy suspected of having an infectious etiology. Unique viral DNA sequences were recognized in KS lesions, using a novel technique that identifies small differences between two complex genomes. The virus had homology with the herpesvirus family, especially Epstein Ba

## Abstract We report the molecular characterization of 38 new Kaposi's sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV) strains from Russian patients with either classic (25 cases), epidemic/AIDS‐associated (7 cases), or posttransplant/immunosuppressed patients (6 cases), or Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). While a co
