“…Additionally, soft tissue hypertrophy in the affected limb may be present, although not necessarily all symptoms will be present in every patient. 3 This form of PKS typically emerges early in life and is limited to one side of the body. The condition arises primarily from congenital arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous short circuits.…”

Our report concerns a 72-year-old female patient who presented with nodular ulcers on her right lower extremity and foot for a duration of 5 months. Based on the results of a dermatological examination, histopathological examination of the lesions, and immunohistochemical findings, we were able to diagnose the patient with Mari-type pseudocaposi sarcoma. Further research allowed us to clarify the distinction between this type of sarcoma and Kaposi’s sarcoma, which will be crucial in devising an effective treatment plan for the patient as we continue to monitor her progress during clinical supervision.

Akroanjiodermatit, klinik ve histopatolojik olarak Kaposi sarkomuna benzeyen selim vasküler bir dermatozdur. Psödo-Kaposi sarkomu olarakta bilinen bu hastalık nadir görülmekte olup, kaposi sarkom ile karışabilmektedir. Olgumuz seksenbeş yaşında kadın hasta olup, her iki alt ekstremitenin distal dorsalateral yüzeylerinde eritemli, yaygın variköz genişlemeler, retiküler damarlarda artış, deride incelme ve ödem gibi bulgular tespit edildi. Klinik ve histopatolojik değerlendirme sonucunda olguya Psödo- Kaposi sarkomu tanısı konuldu. Klinik benzerliği nedeniyle bu hastalığın tanısında biyopsinin önemli bir yeri vardır ve erken dönemde kronik iyileşmeyen lezyonlardan histopatolojik inceleme yapılması şarttır.

Angioacrodermatitis, or Pseudo-Kaposi sarcoma, is a vascular anomaly observed at the extremities in patients with venous insufficiency, often triggered by trauma. Acroangiodermatitis may resemble Kaposi's sarcoma, but unlike Kaposi's sarcoma, acroangiodermatitis is not characterized by progressive changes, and there is a lack of spindle cells and vessels resembling slits on histopathological analysis. Thus, in clinical practice, it is important to recognize acroangiodermatitis and exclude Kaposi's sarcoma, as there may sometimes be similarity with this entity. Topical treatment with neutral corticosteroid preparations and local is often helpful. 35-year-old patient, a communications advisor, who consulted for asymptomatic solid lesions on the left big toe, evolving continuously for 10 years, progressively increasing in size. A toe injury preceded the onset of the lesions. He had no other medical history. On examination, there were angioma-like masses, firm with a discretely keratotic surface, welldefined, painless on palpation adherent to deep and superficial planes, of variable shape, numbering four (4), measuring 2 cm x 4 cm, the largest of which had a parrot beak appearance. There was a discreet increase in local temperature, but no bruit or thrill was noted. The HIV retroviral serology and blood glucose levels were normal. Histopathology revealed vascular proliferation with dilated luminal vessels separated by fibrosis. The diagnosis of acroangiodermatitis or pseudo-Kaposi sarcoma was made. Acroangiodermatitis is a vascular pathology that presents a differential diagnostic challenge with Kaposi's disease. Histopathology is the cornerstone of diagnosis.
