Body<br />

Introduction: Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma (ACC) is a rare tumor entity and comprises about 1%<br />

of all malignant tumor of the oral and maxillofacial region. It is slow growing but a highly<br />

inv<strong>as</strong>ive cancer with a high recurrence rate. Lymphatic spread to local lymph nodes is rare.<br />

C<strong>as</strong>e report: A 41-year-old male patient w<strong>as</strong> referred to University of Ankara, Faculty<br />

of Dentistry, Department of Dentomaxillofacial Radiology, with a complaint of swelling,<br />

par<strong>as</strong>tesia, trismus and pain in the right ramus of the mandible. The patient had tuberculosis<br />

treatment 10 years ago. Following a detailed clinical examination it w<strong>as</strong> noted that<br />

right mandibulary first molar w<strong>as</strong> extracted 6 months ago with traumatic operation. After<br />

operation the dentist prescribed antibiotics and oral mouthw<strong>as</strong>h for two weeks. T<strong>here</strong> were no<br />

differences about complaints. Intraoral apperance of mandibulary molar region w<strong>as</strong> ulcerous.<br />

CBCT showed right ramus perforation of the mandible. Under local anestesia <strong>as</strong>piration biopsy<br />

w<strong>as</strong> performed. Histopathological examination showed adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC).<br />

Conclusion: The dental practitioner h<strong>as</strong> an important role to play in the management<br />

of oral lesions without healing for long periods. It is important of taking a detailed medical<br />

and dental history followed by a more selective, individualized radiographic <strong>as</strong>sessment<br />
