Abstract
- We report two cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma of Bartholin's gland. One of these patients had positive margin on operation and is scheduled for adjuvant radiotherapy. The other was first diagnosed 13 years ago and presented with her second recurrence without distant metastasis. Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the Bartholin's gland is a rare tumor of the vulva. When diagnosed, the treatment should be individualized to the patient. When the surgical margin is found to be positive, adjuvant radiotherapy seems to be beneficial.
