Excerpt

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a relatively uncommon malignancy constituting approximately 1% of head and neck malignancies and approximately 10% of salivary gland tumors.1 It is the most common malignant tumor of the minor salivary glands and can occur throughout the head and neck, including in the major and minor salivary glands, nasal cavities and lacrimal glands. It is characterized by an indolent growth pattern with lymph node metastasis being uncommon, occurring only in approximately 10–15% of cases. Yet, despite this indolent biological behavior, it is classified as a high grade malignancy, primarily due to its propensity to recur locally despite clear surgical margins. …
