The adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland is a rare malignant orbital tumour, which has a generally poor prognosis. The therapy for adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland remains controversial. We present two cases of patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland, who were treated with radical surgery in combination with radiotherapy. The therapeutic results are discussed with reference to relevant literature reports.
