Classic Kaposi Sarcoma in an Immunocompetent Male From Haiti: An Unusual Epidemiological Presentation.

Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an angioproliferative disorder caused by human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) infection. KS manifests as vascular and mucosal nodules and is classified into four subtypes based on epidemiology, clinical presentation, histopathology, and HHV-8/human immunodeficiency virus serology. Here, we present a unique case of classic KS in an 84-year-old immunocompetent Haitian male patient, highlighting the rarity of this variant in this population. Additionally, our article delves into the broader context by reviewing a few documented cases of classic KS in the Caribbean region.
