ABSTRACT
We report a case of a 45 year old non HIV infected female, who presented with multiple painful, livid reddish brown plaques, papules and nodules on both lower limbs and left index finger. The cutaneous nodular lesions on biopsy showed characteristic features of Kaposi's sarcoma. This case is reported due to paucity of Kapsi's sarcoma in non HIV persons. It is typically a disease of older men from European and Mediterranean region. Here we present a case report of classic Kaposi's Sarcoma in a young Indian female
