AIDS Kaposi's Sarcoma
Thee most characteristic unusual neoplasm and AIDS is Kaposi's Sarcoma the red spot on the end of that mans nose is Kaposi's Sarcoma which is a very vascular tumour and used by recorded as only occurring in Africa, and obviously was a feature of African AIDS because the African AIDS which started long before ours but we now have 20% of patients with AIDS we see Kopasis Sarcoma, which looks like a reddish or blackish elevation like that on the nose, or more particularly on the face or lower eyelid. And when you look inside the mouth you may see it producing this over growth of soft tissue, a little like epalis. the same sort of thing you sometimes see in a patient on anti epileptic treatment , but that is Koposis Sarcoma and there we have on the hard palate and there is that big hemorrhagic tumor there, that in Kaposis Sarcoma. And there is on the hard palate perhaps not quite obvious, well that is the sort of thing one gets and that is when it disseminates because the point about Kaposi's Sarcoma in patients with aids is that it disseminates metastases which spreads and kills them.
