Breast adenoid cystic carcinoma (BACC) is a rarely encountered malignant breast neoplasm with a favourable outcome, despite its triple-negative receptor status. It is comprising less than 0.1% of all breast cancers. The more usual primary site of the adenoid cystic carcinoma is seen in the salivary glands, however BACC prognosis is better than the one for salivary gland and also than that of other breast invasive carcinoma. BACC also known to have fewer lymph node metastases as well as fewer distant metastases, hereby we present 73 years old female with previous history of breast ductal carcinoma in-situ, then developed contralateral breast adenoid cystic carcinoma.
