Abstract

INTRODUCTION:

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the Bartholin's gland accounts for a minority of all Bartholin's gland malignancies. Although local recurrences commonly occur distant metastasis is rare.

CASE REPORT:

We present the first reported case of Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the Bartholin's gland with metastasis to the liver.

DISCUSSION:

There is no consensus on the treatment of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the Bartholin's gland. Wide local excision and/or vulvectomy and radiotherapy are advocated for treatment of this cancer. There is not much data on treatment of metastasis and it varies according to site.
