Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus (KSHV)-Associated Disease in the AIDS Patient: An Update

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
HIV/AIDS-Associated Viral Oncogenesis

Part of the book series: Cancer Treatment and Research ((CTAR,volume 177))

Abstract

In this book chapter, we review the current knowledge of the biology and pathogenesis of Kaposi’s sarcomaassociated herpesvirus (KSHV). We describe the lifecycle of KSHV, the cancers associated with this virus, as well as current treatment modalities.
