Summary:Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) is a vascular neoplasm, in which we can distinguish four clinical forms: the classic or Mediterranean, endemic or African, associated with HIV and iatrogenic. Its most frequent clinical manifestations are mucocutaneous lesions and lymph node involvement, although it may manifest with involvement at the visceral level. We present the case of a renal transplant patient who was diagnosed with an intestinal Kaposi’s sarcoma, with no associated cutaneous lesions. El sarcoma de Kaposi (SK) es una neoplasia vascular, en la cual podemos distinguir cuatro formas clínicas: la clásica o mediterránea, endémica o africana, asociada al VIH y la iatrogénica. Sus manifestaciones clínicas más frecuentes son las lesiones mucocutáneas y afectación de ganglios linfáticos si bien puede cursar con afectación a nivel visceral .Presentamos a continuación el caso de un paciente trasplantado renal que fue diagnosticado de un sarcoma de Kaposi intestinal, sin lesiones cutáneas asociadas.
