Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a multicentric neoplasm thought to arise from both vascular and lymphatic endothelium. It is subdivided into four main categories on the basis of clinical features, course and prognosis. We report a 54-year-old Afro-Caribbean male, living in the UK for the past 26 years, with classic features of generalized endemic KS. Because he has never lived on the African continent, the role of genetic rather than environmental factors is favoured in the aetiology of KS in this individual. This disorder is rarely seen in Afro-Caribbeans living in the UK, who have never actually lived in Africa.
