During the eight year period between 1979 and 1986, 124 cases out of 25,343 surgical specimens were histologically diagnosed as KS in western Kenya (Western, Nyanza and Rift Valley Provinces). The epidemiological results were as follows: 1) KS accounted for 124 cases (2.92%) out of 4,243 malignant tumors. 2) A large number of KS was found among and over the 50-59 year old age group. 3) The male to female ratio was 8.4:1. 4) In adults, the most common site of primary lesion was the foot, followed by the leg, hand and arm. 5) In children, KS was predominantly of lymph node origin. 6) The ratio of multiple lesions to solitary lesions was 53:66. 7) Ethnically high incidences of KS per 100,000 population were found among the Luo and Luhya, inhabitants of Nyanza and Western Province, respectively. 8) All patients were from the relatively moist tropical savannah and tropical highlands. None of the patients were from desert or semi-desert areas. These findings suggest that some environmental factors are more important in influencing the causation of KS in western Kenya., 熱帯医学 Tropical medicine 29(2). p87-100, 1987},
