Overview
Kaposi's sarcoma must be differentiated from other diseases that cause similar cutaneous, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal involvement, such as bacillary angiomatosis, AIDS-related lymphoma, and seborrheic keratosis.[1][2][3]
Differentiating Kaposi's Sarcoma from other Diseases
- Kaposi's sarcoma must be differentiated from other diseases that cause similar cutaneous, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal involvement, such as:[1][2][3]
- Kaposi's sarcoma cutaneous lesions must be differentiated from:
- Bacillary angiomatosis
- Arteriovenous malformation
- Acroangiodermatitis
- Masson's hemangioma
- Angiosarcoma
- Seborrheic keratosis
- Erythematous lupus
- Pigmented purpuric dermatosis
- Pyogenic granuloma
- Benign lymphangioendothelioma
- Cavernous hemangioma
- Sarcomatoid carcinoma
- Spindle cell hemangioendothelioma
- Kaposi's sarcoma pulmonary lesions must be differentiated from:
- AIDS-related lymphoma
- Atypical pneumonia
- Fungal or mycobacterial infection
- Lung cancer
- Kaposi's sarcoma gastrointestinal lesions must be differentiated from:
