Abstract
Introduction
Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an angioproliferative neoplasm driven by HHV-8 infection that exhibits variable clinical morphology across stages. Dermoscopy offers a noninvasive tool to capture the evolving structural changes in these lesions.
Objectives
This study aimed to characterize dermoscopic patterns of KS according to clinical stage and to correlate these findings with histopathological features.
