ABSTRACT

Primary cutaneous adenoid cystic carcinoma is a rare tumor with low-grade malignancy that presents as a firm and poorly circumscribed nodule. Histologic examination of this tumor characteristically shows intensely basophilic cells with an adenoid and cribiform pattern occupying the mid to reticular dermis. The definitive diagnosis of this tumor relies on the histologic features and the exclusion of metastatic disease.
