Abstract
Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare diagnosis affecting mainly the salivary glands, but can also be found in the breast, lung, brain and head & neck with very similar genomic structure irrespective of the disease origin. Accounting for <0.1% of breast cancers it is a rare cause of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) however, patients have a very good chance of full recovery with a 10-year survival rate of 90–100%. Due to its rarity, its natural history is not fully understood and there is no clear consensus with regards to treatment.
