Prognosis

Kaposi sarcoma has a variable course. Some patients develop only a few minor skin lesions whilst others have much more extensive external and internal disease. The latter lesions may even result in fatal complications. Kaposi sarcoma is not curable, but it can be treated and its symptoms controlled.
