Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Head and Neck: Incidence and Survival Trends Based on 1973-2007 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Data

Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Head and Neck: Incidence and Survival Trends Based on 1973-2007 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Data

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the head and neck (ACCHN) is a rare tumor of minor salivary, parotid, and submandibular glands. The biologic behavior of the disease is poorly understood, and nonsurgical treatment strategies have yet to be standardized. The long-term prognosis continues to be guard...

Zusammenfassung:Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the head and neck (ACCHN) is a rare tumor of minor salivary, parotid, and submandibular glands. The biologic behavior of the disease is poorly understood, and nonsurgical treatment strategies have yet to be standardized. The long-term prognosis continues to be guarded, with an estimated 10-year survival of
