Cystic Adenoid Carcinoma of the Airway: Multimodal Radiological Approach

Abstract

Cystic adenoid carcinoma (ACC) is the second most frequent tumor of the pathway. The diagnosis is generally late when the patient is taken to tomography studies; however, in retrospective analysis, the patient often presents findings on the chest radiograph, which were generally omitted.
