RESUMO

We studied and followed up 112 African patients with Kaposi's sarcoma for at least 3 years or until death to determine what features of the disease at presentation most accurately predicted the prognosis. The clinical pattern of disease at presentation was most important. All patients with generalized disease died of their disease; the only deaths among those with nodular disease were due to intercurrent illness. The 3-year survuval rate among patients with locally aggressive lesions with 64%. We could obtain greater refinement of prognosis by noting the response to a dinitrochlorobenzene challenge, the presence of nodal involvement, and the histologic pattern of the tumor. The age and sex of the patient influenced the pattern of disease likely to be found, but the prognosis for a given clinical pattern was the same in both sexes and at different ages.

RESUMO

Sixteen out of 48 adult African patients with Kaposi sarcoma were found to have tumour tissue in lymph nodes. The evidence suggests that there are probably two main types of involvement. One occurs predominantly in younger patients and involves many groups of glands, probably develops in situ, and is associated with a poor prognosis. The other form is the result of metastasis to a node from an aggressive tumour in the neighbourhood. This occurs more commonly in the older patient and carries a much better prognosis than in those with generalised lymphadenopathy, though worse than in patients with nodular disease without gland involvement. Follow-up over a period of many years will be required to discover the outcome in these cases. Kaposi sarcoma is unusual in women but when it occurs runs a more aggressive course than in men.
