Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast–A case report and review of the literature

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare type of breast cancer, and predominant adenoid cystic carcinomas are low grade and triple-negative by histology. Unlike other triple-negative breast carcinomas, ACC of the breast generally have a low propensity for recurrence and metastasis, with complete surgical excision alone being curative in most circumstances in early-stage disease. Here, we presents a case study detailing the clinical course of a 32-year-old female patient diagnosed with ACC of the breast. We emphasized the efficacy of standardized treatment protocols and highlighted recent advancements in research pertaining to this uncommon malignancy.
