摘要

Background

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of sublingual gland is a rare malignant tumor. When adenoid cystic carcinoma metastasizes to the acetabulum, it is highly challenging to choose a minimally invasive surgery. The treatment of acetabular metastatic tumors needs to not only maintain the original tumor treatment plan but also relieve pain and reconstruct the acetabular structure and mechanical stability. Therefore, the treatment of acetabular metastasis from sublingual gland adenoid cystic carcinoma is a complex issue.

Case presentation

We treated a 72-year-old Han Chinese woman with acetabular metastasis from sublingual gland adenoid cystic carcinoma. She underwent percutaneous acetabuloplasty. The operation was safe and effective, taking 47 min. The patient could walk freely 2 h after operation and was discharged 2 days later. During the 3-month follow-up, there was no complication and no recurrence.

Conclusion

Percutaneous acetabuloplasty for the treatment of acetabular metastasis from sublingual gland adenoid cystic carcinoma is satisfactory. It not only has the advantages of minimally invasive surgery but also does not interfere with the original tumor treatment plan.
