We describe what to the best of our knowledge is the first reported case of concurrent bilateral tonsillar and esophageal Kaposi sarcoma in an HIV-negative patient. A 68-year-old man presented with sore throat and dysphagia. Clinical examination revealed the presence of bilateral and asymmetrical tonsillar masses, as well as generalized lymphadenopathy in the cervical chain. The masses were resected, and findings on histopathologic analysis were consistent with Kaposi sarcoma. In addition, human herpesvirus 8 was demonstrated on a tonsil specimen by polymerase chain reaction, and microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma was also detected. Later, another Kaposi sarcoma lesion was detected in the lower third of the esophagus. We recommend that clinicians not discount the possibility of oral classic Kaposi sarcoma in the workup of an immunocompetent patient with oral vascular lesions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/014556131109000716","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,10]],"date-time":"2019-01-10T03:18:04Z","timestamp":1547090284000},"page":"E23-E26","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Bilateral Tonsillar and Esophageal Kaposi Sarcoma in an HIV-Negative Patient"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"90","author":[{"given":"Irem Hicran","family":"Ozbudak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Akdeniz University School of Medicine, Antalya, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kenan","family":"Guney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neek Surgery, Akdeniz University School of Medicine, Antalya, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Derya","family":"Mutlu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology, Akdeniz University School of Medicine, Antalya, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tekinalp","family":"Gelen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Akdeniz University School of Medicine, Antalya, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gulay","family":"Ozbilim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Akdeniz University School of Medicine, Antalya, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-014556131109000716","first-page":"192","volume-title":"Rosai and Ackerman's Surgical Pathology","author":"Rosai J.","year":"2004"},{"key":"bibr2-014556131109000716","first-page":"703","volume-title":"Enzinger and Weiss's Soft Tissue Tumors","author":"Weiss SW","year":"2008"},{"key":"bibr3-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0714.1994.tb00253.x"},{"key":"bibr4-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000027562"},{"key":"bibr5-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jnci\/djm045"},{"issue":"3","key":"bibr6-014556131109000716","first-page":"321","volume":"9","author":"Agaoglu FY","year":"2004","journal-title":"J BUON"},{"key":"bibr7-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1525-1578(10)60647-2"},{"key":"bibr8-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01830024"},{"key":"bibr9-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-6665(03)00031-8"},{"key":"bibr10-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0142(20000101)88:1<15::AID-CNCR4>3.0.CO;2-0"},{"issue":"6","key":"bibr11-014556131109000716","first-page":"715","volume":"86","author":"Danzig JB","year":"1991","journal-title":"Am J Gastroenterol"},{"key":"bibr12-014556131109000716","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0030-4220(92)90194-U"},{"issue":"4","key":"bibr13-014556131109000716","first-page":"243","volume":"20","author":"Mongiardo FD","year":"1991","journal-title":"J Otolaryngol"}],"container-title":["Ear, Nose &amp; Throat Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/014556131109000716","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/014556131109000716","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T18:36:55Z","timestamp":1777401415000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/014556131109000716"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2011,7]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2011,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/014556131109000716"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/014556131109000716","relation":{},"ISSN":["0145-5613","1942-7522"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0145-5613","type":"print"},{"value":"1942-7522","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2011,7]]}}}
