Abstract

Chronic lymphedema predisposes for local Immune incompetence, manifested by development of Stuart-Treves syndrome, Kaposi's sarcoma and fibroma-like lesions. A 91-year-old female with multiple cancers developed classic Kaposi's sarcoma on a chronically lymphedematous arm 26 years after radical mastectomy and irradiation of the involved axilla. The Kaposi lesion partially responded to electron beam irradiation.
