Abstract
The authors studied 27 cases of Kaposi's sarcoma, 23 cases of pyogenic granuloma, 18 cases of hemangioma, 17 cases of stasis dermatitis and 9 cases of dermatofibroma. In all these cases, they used the hematoxyl in-eosin stain and Perls 'stain', and they showed the presence of hemo siderin in all the cases of Kaposi's sarcoma and stasis dermatitis. Th e hemangioma and the dermatofibroma presented 50% of positivity, and t he pyogenic granuloma, only 26.1%.
