A 54-year-old man developed Kaposi's sarcoma 2 months following orthotopic liver transplantation for hepatitis B-associated liver cirrhosis. At that time he was on combined immunosuppressive therapy (azathioprine, prednisone and cyclosporine A). The disease is very prevalent among immunosuppressed patients following renal transplantation, but is considered to be relatively rare following liver transplantation. The patient ran a relatively benign course without organ involvement and with only the skin disease. This is the first case of Kaposi's sarcoma following liver transplantation reported in Israel.
