ABSTRACT

Classic Kaposi sarcoma is a multifocal rare tumor originating from vascular endothelial cells with progressive evolution and little malignant predisposition. Although Kaposi sarcoma with extensive visceral involvement is sometimes observed among HIV-positive patients, tumor dissemination to visceral lymph nodes in classic SK remains very rare. We report a rare case of aggressive classic Kaposi sarcoma of the hand with a rapid and destructive development.

ABSTRACT

We report the case of a 25-year-old patient who suffered a ski accident that causing a serious knees sprain. The patient underwent immobilization by plaster knees. After 12 rehabilitation sessions, good progress was noticed in terms of pain. However, the patient is unstable when walking and a positive Trillat Lachman sign at both knees is observed. MRI of Knees confirmed a bilateral rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (figures A, B). We conducted a ligament ACL with the DIDT technique on both knees, beginning with the left- side. After the surgery, everything was normal. X-ray controls (face and profile views) of both knees showed a good positioning of implants (figures C, D). Rehabilitation was undertaken the day following the surgery. Six months later, the patient was able to return to sport.
