Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a malignant tumor of glandular
tissue and progresses with local relapse and distant metastasis.
In this report, we present a case of lacrimal gland adenoid
cystic carcinoma who treated by multimodal approach with intraarterial
chemotherapy. A 32-year-old woman was diagnosed
with adenoid cystic carcinoma (solid variant) of the left lacrimal
gland. Neoadjuvant intraarterial cisplatin, intravenous
doxorubicin, and orbital exenteration were performed. The
patient was followed for 32 months without relapse. Achievement
of long-time survival for this disease supports studies
that show benefit of intraarterial chemotherapy.
