초록

Kaposi’s sarcoma is a multifocal proliferative vascular tumor involving the skin and other organ and psoriasis is a chronic cutaneous disease with papules and plaques with white scale. Development of Kaposi’s sarcoma in psoriasis patients has been reported rarely. A 71-year-old man presented with multiple brownish to violaceous plaques on both feet and arms which were found 4 months ago. The biopsy confirmed Kaposi’s sarcoma. The patient was diagnosed with psoriasis vulgaris 10 years ago and Kaposi’s sarcoma lesions developed between psoriatic plaques. We herein report a rare case of simultaneous occurrence of Kaposi’s sarcoma and psoriasis vulgaris which need quite different treatment.

The patient was diagnosed with psoriasis vulgaris 10 years ago and Kaposi’s sarcoma lesions developed between psoriatic plaques. We herein report a rare case of simultaneous occurrence of Kaposi’s sarcoma and psoriasis vulgaris which need quite different treatment.
