RÉSUMÉ
Objectifs. Le but de ce travail était de décrire les caractéristiques épidémiologiques, cliniques et anatomopathologiques de la maladie de Kaposi chez l’enfant à Yaoundé. Matériels et méthodes. Il s’agissait d’une étude transversale descriptive et prospective sur 13 cas de sarcome de Kaposi chez l’enfant à Yaoundé. Résultats. L’âge moyen était de 5,6 ans ± 3,25 sans différence significative de sexe. Les enfants en bas âges (2-4 ans) étaient les plus représentés. Les adénopathies étaient le signe clinique prédominant. La sérologie VIH positive était fréquemment observée dans la population d’étude. La coloration de Perls était positive dans 53,8 % des cas. Les anticorps CD31, CD34 étaient positif à 92,3%. L’anticorps HHV8 a été exprimé à 84,6%. Conclusion. Le sarcome de Kaposi est une pathologie relativement peu fréquente chez les enfants dans notre contexte. L’infection à VIH est un facteur favorisant. Sur le plan clinique, la localisation ganglionnaire est la plus fréquente contrairement à l’adulte. La forte positivité des immunomarquages dans notre série conforte notre diagnostic.
ABSTRACT
Objectives. The aim of this work was to describe the epidemiological, clinical and pathological characteristics of Kaposi’s sarcoma in children. Material and methods. It was about a descriptive and prospective cross-sectional study on 13 cases of Kaposi’s sarcoma. Results. The average age was 5,6 years old±3,25 with no significant difference. Young children (2-4 years old) was the most common. Lymphadenopathy was the predominant clinical sign. HIV positive serology was frequently observed in the study population. Perls staining was positive in 53,8% of cases. CD31 and CD34 antibodies were positive in 92,3% of cases. The HHV-8 antibody was expressed at 84,6%. Conclusion. Kaposi’s sarcoma is a relatively infrequent pathology in children in our setting. HIV infection is a contributing factor. Clinically, the lymph node location was the most common unlike in adults. The strong positivity of immunostaining confirms our diagnosis.
