“…Orbital ACC commonly arises from the lacrimal gland, However, a small number of cases of primary orbital ACC without lacrimal gland involvement have been reported. Five cases involved the orbital apex with intracranial extension [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , 2 cases involved the medial orbit [ 7 , 8 ], and 1 case involved the inferior orbit [9] .…”

“…Several hypotheses as to the origin of intraorbital ACC have been proposed, including the possibility of the tumor originating from ectopic lacrimal gland tissue, perineural spread of occult ACC from other regions of the head and neck, or hematogenous metastases from an unidentified distant location [6] .…”

“…Orbital ACC is rare, most commonly originating from the lacrimal gland. Primary orbital ACC without lacrimal gland involvement has only been described in a small number of reports to our knowledge [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] . We report a case of right orbital ACC without macroscopic lacrimal gland involvement showing skull base invasion and intracranial extension.…”

“…Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is an uncommon malignant epithelial tumor that usually originates from the salivary and lacrimal glands. Orbital ACC is rare and commonly originates from the lacrimal gland 1,2 . ACC of the lacrimal gland accounts for 1.6% of all orbital tumors and is characterized clinically by periocular pain, ptosis, and/or proptosis, and inferomedial displacement of the globe 3,4 .…”

Key Clinical MessageElectrical Impedimetric Tumor Detection System is a novel and promising tool for fast intraoperative tumor delineation and accurate safe margin detection in orbital tumors.AbstractAdenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant tumor of epithelial origin, typically arising from the salivary and lacrimal glands. ACC is notorious for recurrence and a high rate of morbidity and mortality despite therapy. We presented a 48‐year‐old male patient with lacrimal gland ACC of the right orbit who underwent radical tumor resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. We applied a new diagnostic method, the Electrical Impedimetric Tumor Detection System, during surgery and tested its performance to enhance the precision of tumor resection. Two months after surgery, he underwent external radiation of 58 Gy in 29 fractions. He showed no tumor recurrence or metastasis in the 1‐year follow‐up visits. ITDS showed a precision of tumor and margin detection consistent with histopathology results. This novel ITDS may be a reliable system for fast intraoperative tumor delineation and accurate, safe margin detection in orbital tumors.

Rationale: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of orbit is a very rare epithelial tumor, often originating from the lacrimal glands. At the same time, treatment options are currently limited, such as radiation, chemotherapy. We report a case of a patient treated with antirotinib combined with radiotherapy. Patient concerns: A 13-year-old girl was initially admitted with “left eye swelling for over half a year, 12 days after surgery for left orbital adenoid cystic carcinoma”. Initial swelling of the lateral upper eyelid of the left eye, with gradual enlargement and occasional pain. Diagnoses: Left orbital adenoid cystic carcinoma. Interventions: After diagnosis of orbital ACC, she underwent resection of the left orbital mass, and received 33 times of adjuvant radiotherapy, but brain metastases appeared later. She refused further treatment, and received 25 times of radiotherapy and anlotinib therapy after the disease progressed again. Outcomes: Now the patient has been followed up for 8 months, but no progress was found. Lessons: Based on this, we hypothesized that radiation therapy in combination with anlotinib is effective for ACC or ACC metastases.
