Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is an extremely rare tumor of the breast, accounting for approximately 0.1% of all cases of mammary malignancies. It is characterized by a slow-growing nature and an excellent prognosis, in contrast to most other forms of breast cancer. Diagnostic mammography and breast ultrasound play essential roles in the early detection and diagnosis of this uncommon tumor. Treatment options include lumpectomy with radiation therapy or mastectomy. Although late recurrence and distant metastasis have been reported in the literature, long-term surveillance remains crucial. This report describes the case of a 58-year-old woman with abnormal findings on screening mammography and ultrasonography, which were pathologically confirmed as adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast, and includes a relevant literature review.
