Core Tip This study identifies key prognostic factors influencing survival in patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma following surgical treatment. Among 55 patients analyzed, advanced T stage and positive surgical margins independently predicted poorer overall and disease-free survival. Postoperative radiotherapy showed a protective trend, suggesting benefit for local control and long-term outcomes. These findings emphasize the critical importance of achieving negative margins during surgery and integrating radiotherapy into the treatment strategy. By clarifying prognostic determinants, this study contributes valuable evidence to guide individualized, curative management of adenoid cystic carcinoma and improve patient survival in this rare malignancy.
