The authors report 7 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma arising in the parotid gland between 1969 and 1990. All patients underwent surgery. Radiotherapy was performed twice following surgery. Local failure, nodal failure and distant metastasis are analyzed. Death appears to be related mainly to local failure. Radiotherapy does not seem to improve the local control obtained by surgery alone. Surgery must then be total and if necessary mutilating. Radiotherapy associated to surgery might be useful in case of extensive tumors for which complete eradication is not possible. A review of the world literature is performed.

D003528 Carcinoma, Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma characterized by bands or cylinders of hyalinized or mucinous stroma separating or surrounded by nests or cords of small epithelial cells. When the cylinders occur within masses of epithelial cells, they give the tissue a perforated, sievelike, or cribriform appearance. Such tumors occur in the mammary glands, the mucous glands of the upper and lower respiratory tract, and the salivary glands. They are malignant but slow-growing, and tend to spread locally via the nerves.
