Change in Pattern of Secondary Cancers After Kaposi Sarcoma in the Era of Antiretroviral Therapy

Abstract: There has been a significant decline in the overall risk of secondary cancers after KS. Certain cancers, including acute lymphocytic leukemia, cancer of the tongue, and cancer of the penis, are increasingly becoming more common in the HAART era compared with the pre-HAART era. Close monitoring and screening for these secondary cancers is desirable in patients with KS.

“…The primary outcomes were overall survival and development of SPCs in patients with metastatic melanoma. Patients with metastatic melanoma were followed up to the date they developed SPCs, 10 and by dividing the observed number of cases of second primary cancer by the expected number of cases in the general population after matching by sex, age group, and calendar year. 10 We used SIR to estimate the risk that survivors of metastatic melanoma will develop a second primary malignancy relative to the incidence of cancer among the general population.…”

“…Consequently, gastric SPM was incidentally detected. For patients with KS, SPMs as well as multicentric KS in other sites are reportedly serious complications [10,28]. Based on our literature review, the first case of SPM (lymphatic leukemia) in a patient with KS was reported in 1920 [32].…”

“…Non-English studies and English conference proceedings were excluded. A total of 280 cases of patients with KS with multiple tumors including head and neck, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, or colorectal (including anal) malignancies were identified [7,[10][11][12][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] (Table 1). Of the identified cases, 7, 20, 1, and 159 had KS with esophagus, stomach, duodenum, and colorectal (including anal) malignancy, respectively.…”
