Abstract
Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a rare disease that was not frequently identified before the widespread occurrence of AIDS. Even today, it remains a challenge for physicians to diagnose, particularly in its early stages, often requiring referral to specialists and further investigations. Dermoscopy, a non-invasive imaging technique, reveals a distinctive rainbow pattern that strongly indicates KS. Moreover, advanced imaging tools like optical coherence tomography (OCT) can provide additional information though specific disease-related patterns have not been fully established yet. These emerging techniques show promise in facilitating early diagnosis of skin-related KS and monitoring the effectiveness of treatments. However, biopsy remains the definitive method for confirming the disease. In this study, we present two cases of cutaneous Kaposi sarcoma, documented using OCT, both before and after treatment with imiquimod 5% cream. The study highlights the potential of OCT in evaluating disease progression and treatment response, as well as the usefulness of dermoscopy in detecting early indicators of KS. By integrating these advanced imaging techniques, the diagnosis and management of cutaneous KS could be improved, leading to timely interventions and better patient outcomes.
