Adenoid cystic carcinoma is known for its slow growth, painless characteristics, a propensity to invade peripheral nerves, and the potential for metastasis, often accompanied by a high recurrence rate. In this case, a 52-year-old female patient presented with swelling and painful symptoms in the anterior region of the mandible. Upon clinical examination, a hardened tumefaction was observed, covered by intact mucosa, displaying pink and purplish colors. Radiographic examination revealed evidence of bone destruction in the anterior mandibular region. Further investigations included an ultrasound of the affected region and an incisional biopsy, leading to a histopathological report confirming the presence of cystic adenoid carcinoma. Subsequently, the patient was referred to the head and neck team for tumor resection and microsurgical reconstruction. A follow-up has been conducted over the course of one year to monitor the patient's progress and recovery.. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
