Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the sublingual gland is an extremely rare neoplasm. The clinicopathological characteristics of ACC are slow-growing swelling with or without ulceration, perineural spread, local recurrence, and distant metastasis. This report describes a 58-year-old male who had a slowly growing swelling without ulceration on the right side of the mouth floor that had been present for 1 month. In a radiological examination, the mass showed multilocular cystic features and no bony or tongue muscle invasion. No enlarged cervical lymph nodes were detected. Excisional biopsy and histological analysis showed that the lesion was ACC. In addition to reporting a rare case of ACC, this report also discusses the differential diagnosis and treatment of ACC with a review of the relevant literature.

Cystic hypersecretory carcinoma of the breast is a rare variant of ductal carcinoma of breast, first described in 1984 by Rosen and Scott. Histologically, it is characterized by the formation of dilated ducts and cysts containing an eosinophilic secretory product resembling thyroid colloid. Cytologic findings show a few clusters of atypical ductal epithelial cells in amorphous proteinaceous material with clacking artifact. Differential diagnosis include mucinous carcinoma and benign mucocele-like tumor. We present two cases of fine needle aspiration cytology of cystic hypersecretory intraductal carcinoma of the breast with a review of the literature.

Primary adenoid cystic carcioma of trachea is rare, with an incidence of only 0.2 per 100,000 persons per year. When all series of the tracheal carcinomas are combined, adenoid cystic carcinoma is the second most common tumor only to squamous cell carcinoma in incidence. Most patients have wheezing or stridor, dyspnea, hemoptysis, and cough as symptoms. Treatment options include surgery alone, radiation therapy alone, or a combination of both. The recommended surgical option is primary tracheal resection and reconstruction. Recently, we experienced a case of adenoid cystic carcinoma in 45 year old female patient who was treated tracheal tumor resection and end-to-end anastomosis of the trachea, so we report this case with the literatures.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is malignant neoplasm belonging to a group of tumors of salivary gland origin. It is an aggressive tumor characterized by slow growth and incidious destruction of surrounding tissues. Perineural invasion is a prominent feature. Spread to regional lymph node is rare, other than by direct extension. Distant metastasis are more common. We experienced a 65-year old female with adenoid cystic carcinoma of minor salivary gland in retromolar pad.

심한 호흡곤란을 주소로 내원한 67세 남자의 영상소견상 종격동의 거대 낭성 종양이 기관을 압박하여 편이시키는 소견이 보여 응급 개흉술을 통해 종양을 절제하였다. 조직 소견상 갑상선의 유두상 암종에 합당하였고 수술 후 시행한 갑상선 초음파 검사와 양성자 단층촬영상 잠재성 갑상선 암종에 합당한 소견을 보였다. 갑상선의 유두상 암종이 초기에 원격 전이를 보이는 경우는 드물며 대부분 단독 결절의 형태를 취하나, 잠재성 암종이 종격동에 거대 낭성 전이를 하는 경우는 극히 드물어 보고하는 바이다.

선양 낭포암은 종양의 진행 속도가 느리며 직접 국소 침범을 잘하는 종양이다. 종양의 특성 상 완전 종양 절제가 불가능한 경우 합병증을 해결하는 치료만으로도 장기간의 생존이 가능하다. 본 교실에서는 간에 전이된 선양 낭포암 환자에서 좌측 주기관지 폐쇄로 발생한 다발성 폐농양에 의한 악성 발열 증상을 좌측 전폐 절제술을 통해 치료하여 경과 양호하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma usually grows in the trachea or near its bifurcation and causes obstruction of the air way. We recently experienced a 33 year-old male patient who had adenoid cystic carcinoma in the left main bronchus with the chief complaint of productive cough. On the bronchoscopy, the mass obstructed the left main bronchus completely and had nodularity and increased vascularity.The trachea was shifted to the left side and the lower lobe of the left lung was atelectatic on chest X-ray and computed axial tomogram.He underwent left tracheal sleeve pneumonectomy and lymph node dissection through bilateral thoracotomy. At first,we attempted left tracheal sleeve pneumonectomy through the left thoracotomy,however, it was very difficult to perform carinoplastic procedure after sleeve resection of 2.5cm of distal trachea and 1cm of proximal right main bronchus including whole left lung because of poor operative field and difficulty in the anastomosis of the right main bronchus to the distal end of the trachea without tension.Therefore after radical resection of the left lung we made right thoracotomy,through which we could anastomosed the distal trachea and right main bronchus with 4-0 PDS interrupted suture after mobilization of the right hilum without difficulty. The tumor was confirmed to be adenoid cystic carcinoma with metastasis to subcarinal lymph node histopathologically. Postoperative course was uneventful but he needed two bronchoscopic procedure to clear distal airway of the retained bronchial secretion. He was discharged at 14 days after operation with complete recovery.

A 67-year-old man visited our plastic surgery clinic complaining of a palpable protruding mass (2.0×2.5 cm) in the right occipital region. To establish an appropriate treatment plan for the cystic mass, brain magnetic resonance imaging was performed. A 2.2 cm nodular lesion with peripheral enhancement in the right occipital region of the scalp was confirmed. In addition, two rim-enhancing nodular lesions up to 9 mm with marked perilesional edema in the right frontal lobe were confirmed. The findings suggested metastasis from cancer. After further evaluations, a mass in the right lower lung field was identified as adenocarcinoma of the lung. Histological examination characterized the excised lesion as a cutaneous metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma. This case report shows that a cystic mass, which commonly occurs in the scalp, may indicate lung cancer. In particular, if a cystic mass of the scalp is identified in a person at high risk for lung cancer, appropriate evaluation and urgent treatment should be performed.

Solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm (SPEN) of the pancreas is a rare tumor with low malignant potentiality that usually occurs in young females. Preoperative evaluation, especially radiologic tests, including ultrasonography and CT scan, is helpful in the diagnosis. These studies demonstrate a well-demarcated large mass with solid and cystic portions, frequently in the tail or body of the pancreas. Complete resection is usually curative, however local invasion and/or metastasis may occur. The authors report a case of a solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm of the pancreatic body in a 14-year old child at St. Benedict Hospital and review the literature.
