How aggressive is adenoid cystic carcinoma?
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare, aggressive form of cancer that develops in the salivary glands of the sinonasal tract and can spread (metastasize) to the lungs, liver and bones. Because of its likelihood to spread, a patient's tumor may be advanced at the time of diagnosis.
