Kaposi sarcoma is a rare vascular tumour mainly described in immunocompromised patients, such as HIV infected individuals or transplant patients. We report a case of disseminated classical Kaposi sarcoma in a 79-year-old immunocompetent (non-HIV infected) man from Northern Territory, who did not have major comorbidities presented with papulo-nodular skin lesions distributed over upper, lower extremities and torso. His lesions were biopsied and pathological features were consistent with Kaposi sarcoma. He was managed conservatively with fine cautery and cryotherapy with significant improvement in the appearance of the lesions.
