Abstract
We present a 35-year-old African American man with AIDSassociated Kaposi sarcoma with atypical bilateral lower limb lymphedema as the only sign of the disease during the 4-year follow-up. Lymphedema portrays a poor prognosis and represents an indication for chemotherapy in addition to antiretroviral therapy. Copyright © 2013 by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
