Overview

This review examines adenoid cystic carcinoma treatment outcomes in lacrimal gland patients, suggesting multimodal strategies improve disease-free survival and local control.

Key Points

  • Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland often leads to local recurrence, even with aggressive treatment.
  • Treatment protocols may include orbital exenteration, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, highlighting variation in approaches.
  • Recent studies indicate multimodal treatments may improve disease-free survival compared to older single-modality approaches.
  • The review compiles clinical and histopathological features along with management strategies observed over the past 30 years.
