## Abstract Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) accounts for more than 15% of AIDS‐related malignancies. The etiology of KS is unresolved but is postulated to be multi‐factorial, involving viruses and overexpression of cellular growth factors and/or oncogenes. Recently, herpesvirus‐like sequences (KSHV) were ide

The evidence of an infectious agent other than human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acting as a possible etiologic cause of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) has received considerable attention in the last years. Recently, DNA sequences from a new herpesvirus (HHV-8) have been observed in several cases of KS. The

The identification of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) clusters in subequatorial Africa (endemic KS, AKS) and the high frequency of KS in sexually transmitted AIDS (epidemic KS, EKS), have previously suggested a role for infectious agents in the etiopathogenesis of KS.
