Kaposi Sarcoma
Kaposi Sarcoma is a cancer that forms in the lining of blood and lymph vessels. It often appears as tumours on the skin or on mucosal surfaces. The disease is closely associated with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) and is more prevalent in individuals with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS.
