Description
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)
This is an example of KS of skin. It is a macular lesion, shown at high power. Several jagged, slit-like spaces are dissecting the collagen of the skin. These spaces are formed by endothelial cells and are the earliest histologically identifiable lesion of Kaposi's sarcoma. There is also an associated inflammatory infiltrate. H&E stain.
