Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a less commonly diagnosed cancer that may affect the major or minor salivary glands. We present a 70 year old male patient who was admitted to the Department of Oral Medicine, School of Dental Medicine in Zagreb, Croatia due to pain in the right maxilla. In this case we report a case of the patient with unilateral pain in the maxilla &eye which lead to the diagnosis of adenoid cystic cancer without any visible oral lesions.

Prikazan je slucaj 70-godisnjeg bolesnika koji je upucen u Zavod za oralnu medicinu Stomatoloskog fakulteta u Zagrebu zbog boli u desnoj strani gornje celjusti. U ovom slucaju opisujemo kako jednostrana ostra bol u gornjoj celjusti i oku moze ukazivati na dijagnozu adenoidnog cisticnog karcinoma, iako bolesnik nema u usnoj supljini vidljivih promjena. Kljucne rijeci adenoidni cisticni karcinom; tumori zlijezda slinovnica; jednostrana bol gornje celjusti i oka
