“…The metastatic sites included the lung, liver, bone, brain, kidney, heart, skin, and abdomen [ 3 ]. Although some case reports of pulmonary resection for metastases of ACC have been published, liver resection for metastases of ACC [ 6 ], especially tracheal ACC, is rare. To the best of our knowledge, only one other case report has been published [ 7 ].…”

Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a relatively indolent cancer, for which the major cause of death is distant metastases. The median survival time of patients with distant metastases of ACC is approximately 20 months. Although the liver is not the most common site of secondary ACC, effective treatment of liver metastases could improve patient survival. This study explored the clinical features and treatment of liver metastases of ACC in one centre and performed a literature review. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study. The records of 25 ACC patients with liver metastases in our hospital from January 2000 to September 2018 and 13 case reports (from 2000 to 2018) from PubMed published in English were reviewed together. Survival curves were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate cox regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for overall survival (OS). Results: Patients with liver metastases of ACC had a poor prognosis. The median survival time of patients with ACC liver metastases was 14 months (4-26 months), and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 55.8%, 28.5%, and 15.2%, respectively. Isolated liver metastases were more likely to benefit from local treatment, such as surgery and radiofrequency ablation (RFA), than multifocal metastases. The prognosis was worse for patients who received systemic treatment for multifocal liver metastases than for those who received other treatment. Synchronous liver metastases were the predictive factor for OS both in univariate and multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Local treatment, such as surgical resection or RFA, may prolong the survival time of ACC patients with liver metastases. The definition of resectability for liver metastases needs further investigation.

Objective To review reports of adenoid cystic carcinomas arising in the head and neck area outside of the major salivary glands, in order to enhance the care of patients with these unusual neoplasms. Methods An international team of head and neck surgeons, pathologists, oncologists and radiation oncologists was assembled to explore the published experience and their own working experience of the diagnosis and treatment of adenoid cystic carcinomas arising in the vicinity of the sinonasal tract, nasopharynx, lacrimal glands and external auditory canal. Results The behaviour of adenoid cystic carcinoma arising in head and neck sites exclusive of the major salivary glands parallels that of tumours with a similar histology arising in the major salivary glands – these are relentless, progressive tumours, associated with high rates of mortality. Of 774 patients reviewed, at least 41 (5.3 per cent) developed documented regional node metastases. Conclusion The relatively low overall incidence of nodal metastases in adenoid cystic carcinomas arising in the head and neck region outside of the major salivary glands suggests that routine elective regional lymph node dissection might not be indicated in most patients with these tumours.
