Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), characterized by proliferating glands and stromal and basement membrane elements, is a tumor most commonly occurring in the salivary glands; very rarely does this tumor present as a primary tumor in the breast. We present the case of a 53-year-old female who presented with a breast mass noted to be concerning on imaging and confirmed to be ACC on biopsy. The mass was amenable to surgical excision with referrals to medical and radiation oncology. Due to the rarity of the disease, there is no consensus regarding the optimal treatment strategy for the pathology, including the use of chemotherapy and radiation. Long-term follow-up is, however, recommended in order to monitor for recurrence.
腺样囊性癌（ACC）以腺体、间质和基底膜成分增生为特征，是最常见于唾液腺的肿瘤；这种肿瘤极少以原发性肿瘤的形式出现在乳腺中。我们报告一例53岁女性病例，该患者乳腺出现肿物，影像学检查提示可疑，活检确诊为ACC。该肿物适合手术切除，并转诊至医学肿瘤学和放射肿瘤学科室。由于该疾病罕见，对于其病理的最佳治疗策略，包括化疗和放疗的使用，尚无共识。然而，建议进行长期随访以监测复发情况。
