Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the nasopharynx is a rare disease with 34 previously reported cases in the literature. We report three additional cases with clinical presentation, treatment, and outcome. The presenting symptoms were facial pain in one case, middle ear effusion and epistaxis in another, and diplopia in the third. Radiotherapy was administered with relief of symptoms in all three cases. However, two patients with long-term follow-up developed local recurrence as well as distant metastases. The literature review showed that patients with this disease present with symptoms and signs such as insidious onset of facial pain, epistaxis, diplopia, and hearing loss. The final outcome, despite vigorous treatment, was dismal.
鼻咽腺样囊性癌是一种罕见疾病，文献中此前报道过34例病例。我们报告另外3例病例，包括临床表现、治疗及结果。其中1例的表现症状为面部疼痛，另1例为中耳积液和鼻出血，第3例为复视。所有3例均接受了放射治疗，症状得到缓解。然而，2例长期随访的患者出现了局部复发及远处转移。文献综述显示，该疾病患者的症状和体征包括隐匿性面部疼痛、鼻出血、复视及听力丧失。尽管进行了积极治疗，最终结果仍不容乐观。
