Abstract

Kaposi's sarcoma is an uncommon endothelial malignant tumor, first described by Moricz Kaposi in 1872. It is commonly encountered in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), immunosuppression or organ transplantation. Conjunctival Kaposi's sarcoma is a rare tumor, mostly in patients with AIDS. We present a selected case with a superior bulbar conjunctival lesion in a patient who is HIV negative and immunocompetent, with an unremarkable general medical history. The lesion was surgically excised with no adjunctive treatment, and histological examination confirmed the diagnosis. There was no recurrence or metastasis 5 years after surgery.
