Orbital kaposi sarcoma in a female retroviral disease negative nigerian and a review of literature

An orbital location of Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is rare, and none has been reported in Nigeria to the best of our knowledge. We report the multidisciplinary management of a case; a 50-year-old human immune-deficiency virus, seronegative female who presented with a painless, progressive swelling of the left eye of two years duration that was histologically confirmed as orbital KS. Occurrence of KS in the orbit is rare; we highlight the need for a very high index of suspicion for this tumor as well as the challenges of managing this unsightly indolent tumor in Nigeria.
