Popis: | Basal cell adenocarcinoma (BCAC) is a recently described rare salivary gland tumor. They are locally invasive and destructive tumors with rare incidence of metastasis. BCAC most commonly occur in the parotid gland followed by the submandibular and other minor salivary glands. The primary management of these tumors is surgery with or without adjuvant radiotherapy. Lacrimal gland is a very rare location of BCAC; only one case has been reported in English literature. We report a case of recurrent basal cell adenocarcinoma of lacrimal gland in a 75-year-old female. She had past history of local excision of a tumor in the lacrimal gland of same side 10 years back, details of which were not available with the patient. We discuss about the case and review the literature about treatment modality in basal cell adenocarcinoma. |
