Kaposi's sarcoma of the larynx is a rarely observed manifestation of AIDS. Possible concomitant symptoms are hoarseness up to aphonia, urge to cough or stridor. Expectoration of small parts of tissue of Kaposi's sarcoma may be an additional sign.

Local extirpation of Kaposi's sarcoma removes the laryngeal signs and symptoms.
