Reducing doses of immunosuppressive drugs and switching from calcineurin inhibitors to the mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor rapamycin have been suggested as an effective first-line treatment modality in most patients. Herein, we report a 64-year-old renal transplant recipient who developed multiple cutaneous and visceral Kaposi sarcoma lesions 2 months after transplant. The patient showed no improvement, with progression of the disease until month 15 of the suggested therapy of rapamycin.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessmTOR inhibitorRenal transplant recipientSolid-organ transplant recipientArticle16Supplement 125270004541746000062-s2.0-85044134702
