<front><div type="abstract" xml:lang="en"><p>Classical Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) typically affects elderly men of Mediterranean and Jewish origin. We present an unusual case of classical KS in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) negative elderly farmer from rural Nigeria. He had multiple brownish nodules and plaques on both lower extremities associated with lymphoedema. Histopathological examination of a biopsy of the skin nodule confirmed the diagnosis of KS. The lesions only showed marginal improvement on chemotherapy which necessitated a referral for radiotherapy. There is a need to look beyond the traditional geographical distinction of KS variants as we continue to experience a dynamic role for environmental co-factors in the development of KS.</p>

<trans-abstract xml:lang="tr"><title>Özet</title>
<p>Klasik Kaposi sarkomu (KS), tipik Akdeniz ve Yahudi kökenli yaşlı erkekleri etkiler. Burada kırsal Nijerya bir HIV negatif yaşlı çiftçi klasik KS olgusu sunmaktayız. Hastanın lenfödem ile ilişkili her iki alt ekstremitelerde birden çok kahverengi nodüller ve plaklar bulunmaktaydı. Cilt nodülün biyopsisinin histopatholjik incelemesi KS tanısını doğrulanmıştır. Lezyonlar kemoterapi ile sadece marjinal gelişme göstererek radyoterapiye başvurmayı zorunlu kılmıştır. KS gelişiminde çevresel ko-faktörler için dinamik bir rol devam ederken, KS çeşitlerinin geleneksel coğrafi ayrımının ötesine bakmak gerekir.</p>
