[Cystic adenoid carcinoma. Review of last five years in our ENT department (1987-1991)].

: We present 4 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma from different locations (parotid, submaxillary, larynx and auditory duct) and we underline the supraglottic origin of one of them. We point out the good clinical behaviour of this carcinoma, with a long tested survival, more than 5 years, in 2 of our cases. All of them showed morphological features independently of the sitting.
