KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: The purpose of this article is to highlight that oral Kaposi's disease can be indicative of a high viral load of HIV, either in the case of primary infection or therapeutic failure.
ABSTRACT: We report two cases of Kaposi Disease associated with HIV. The first case was a 30-year-old patient who unaware of her HIV-positive status, and who was diagnosed with AIDS stage because of the biopsy revealed a gingival location of Kaposi disease. The second case was a 34-year-old patient who was referred to our department with a history of palatal lesion and claimed at first having no previous known medical conditions although his overall health condition seemed deteriorated. Our clinical examination was evocative of Kaposi Disease, which was confirmed by an emergency blood assessment and histological examination. Our diagnosis led us to disclose the HIV-positive status of the patient and identify a progression to the AIDS stage, which allowed us to reintroduce the patient in the hospital framework. This case emphasizes the role of the oral surgeon as a key actor thanks to their knowledge of the clinical buccal manifestations of sexually transmitted infections (STI), in an era of resurgence of those conditions in vulnerable key populations.
