Abstract
Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lung is a relatively rare, slow growing lung
neoplasm. Metastases outside the lung are uncommon. Herein, we have reported the
case of a patient who presented with a large mass in the right lower lobe of her lung.
Bronchial biopsy revealed features suggestive of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the
lung with a predominant cribriform architecture. CT abdomen showed features of bilateral
renal and liver metastases, but no adrenal metastases.
