  • Title: Adenoid cystic carcinoma with orbital and cranial metastases: case report.
    Author: Petrelli RL, Labay GR, Schwarz GS.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1978 Apr; 10(5):611-5. PubMed ID: 209714.
    Abstract:
    Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the paranasal sinuses was demonstrated in a patient who subsequently developed a metastatic lesion to both orbits resulting in total blindness. While there are reports of extension of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland to the adjacent orbit, this patient is an example of orbital extension of an adenoid cystic carcinoma of minor salivary gland originating in a paranasal sinus. The frequency and classification of this tumor also is reviewed.
