Dermatoscope image of a Kaposi's sarcoma lesion on a transsexual woman's skin. Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a form of cancer that can form purple skin lesions and masses in the skin, lymph nodes, or other organs. It is caused by infection with the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV, HHV-8). There are four subtypes: classic KS, endemic KS, immunosuppression therapy-related KS and epidemic KS. Endemic KS is a more aggressive disease that infiltrates the skin extensively. Kaposi's sarcoma is not curable, but can often be treatable for many years. Treatment varies depending on the subtype.
