Cystic adenoid carcinoma, which generally develops in the salivary glands, is a rare primary lung tumor. Locoregional treatment classically associates surgery and radiotherapy. Approximately half of the patients develop metastases; appropriate treatment with chemotherapy remains to be defined. We report the case of a woman who developed lung and pleural metastases of a right submaxillary cystic adenoid carcinoma. Chemotherapy with paclitaxel provided partial tumor response after three cycles. We present a review of the literature on chemotherapy for cystic adenoid carcinoma.
囊性腺样癌一般发生于唾液腺,是一种罕见的原发性肺肿瘤。局部区域治疗传统上包括手术和放疗。大约一半的患者会发生转移;化疗的合适治疗方案仍有待确定。我们报告一例右下颌下囊性腺样癌发生肺和胸膜转移的女性病例。紫杉醇化疗三个周期后肿瘤部分缓解。我们对囊性腺样癌化疗的文献进行了综述。
