Core Tip	Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the esophagus is easily misdiagnosed by endoscopic pathology. Surgical pathology and immunohistochemistry are the gold standards for diagnosis and at present, surgery is still our preferred treatment option. Adjuvant chemotherapy and targeted therapy are given for patients with distant metastasis. Whilst radiotherapy can be used locally, there has not been a precise study on optimal chemotherapy regimens. More research is needed to explore the treatments of esophageal adenoid cystic carcinoma.
