Kaposi Sarcoma
in
Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome
Figures (clockwise) from: Lavigne et al.,1998; Dalton State College &VisionPoint Marketing, 2016; Kelley L.A., et al., 2015. 1
2. Kaposi Sarcoma (KS) & HIV/AIDS
• Human Herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8)
• Kaposi Sarcoma associated Herpesvirus (KSHV)
• Immunodeficiency
• Endothelial cells
• Latent/lysogenic
• Tumors expansion = angiogenesis

2001; Silverman, Jr. & Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Public Health Image Library (PHIL), 1999.

4. Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART)
• Multi-drug approach
• Longitudinal treatment
• Very effective
• Mortality: >30% à <9%

5. Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS)
• Iatrogenic (2º to HAART)
• CD4+ count rapidly increases
• Occult infections suddenly
become violently symptomatic
• Severity of symptoms likely*
the result of an Ag-specific T-
cell mediated response to
occult pathogens
*Detailed MOA not yet entirely elucidated…

6. IRIS in the Context of KS
• Rare
• Atypical presentation of KS
• Pleuropulmonary
• Can be rapidly fatal
