[Adenoid cystic carcinoma. Apropos of a case localized in the lacrimal apparatus].
The authors report one case of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the medical canthus of the orbit. This carcinoma is typified by slow but aggressive growth with multiple local recurrences. Surgery is necessary but radical excision with total exenteration is a difficult decision. Radiotherapy associated to surgery might be usefull.
