Abstract
ACC is an unusual pulmonary neoplasm, accounting
for 0.09%-0.2% of all lung cancers. It is a low-grade tumour with
unusual histological features and rarely matastasises outside
the lungs. We describe a case with bilateral renal metastases.
We discuss the clinical and histological features, and the implications
for its treatment.
Key words
Adenoid cystic carcinoma, pulmonary carcinoma,
