What are some oral manifestations of Kaposi's Sarcoma and where can I get photos of this disease?I am doing a research paper on this subject and have not been able to find some oral manifestations or photos thus far. Any ideas?
Answer by smile
involvement of the oral cavity is seen after that of the extremities and face. the oral lesions are same as cutaneous nodules i.e. they appear as reddish or brownish red nodules which may vary in size from a few mm to a cm or more in diameter. cervical lymph node and salivary gland involvement commonly precedes cutaneous and visceral involvement in African children.
u may refer to textbook of Oral Pathology(Shafer), PubMed, http://www.hivdent.org/slides/ (for pictures)..

have you tried going to the images section of yahoo.com and typing it into the search box. otherwise try looking in your local library but you should be able to find it online.
