Core Tip Hepatic Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a clinical presentation that disproportionately affects the human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) population. Up to 34% of patients with AIDS and KS have hepatic involvement. Usually hepatic KS is clinically indolent and diagnosed during autopsy. When clinically significant, hepatic KS presents with evidence of liver injury with elevation in bilirubin and liver enzymes, has characteristic findings on imaging and may progress to liver failure and death. Treatment is indicated in patients with progressive and symptomatic hepatic disease in the absence of other etiologies.
