Adenoid Cystic carcinoma of nasal cavity- A Rare Case Report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
Abstract: Adenoid cystic carcinoma is most common tumor arising from major and minor salivary glands and rarely occurs in nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. ACC was first described by French scientists—Robin, Lorain and Laboulbène in 1853 and 1854. Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the paranasal sinuses or nasal cavity is an aggressive neoplasm that results in a high incidence of both local recurrence and distant metastasis, regardless of treatment modality. Diagnosis and treatment of ACC pose numerous challenges, partly due to its biological behavior of slow growth, high tendency of local recurrence, and perineural spread. Here we report a case of ACC of Nasal cavity presented for its rarity. Keywords:Adenoid cystic carcinoma, paranasal sinuses or nasal cavity
