A rare case report of adenoid cystic carcinoma of parotid gland with perivascular and perineural spread

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a slow growing malignant neoplasm of the salivary glands, mainly occurring in minor salivary glands and relatively rare in parotid glands. It has got a remarkable capacity for extensive subclinical spread to the adjacent structures. Here, we present a case report of adeno...

Sumario:Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a slow growing malignant neoplasm of the salivary glands, mainly occurring in minor salivary glands and relatively rare in parotid glands. It has got a remarkable capacity for extensive subclinical spread to the adjacent structures. Here, we present a case report of adenoid cystic carcinoma of parotid gland with perineural and perivascular spread. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of adenoid cystic carcinoma of parotid gland with perivascular spread along a major artery (ECA) and perineural spread along two different nerves (mandibular nerve and facial nerve)
