Salivary gland malignancies are a heterogeneous group of 24 tumours that have unpredictable clinical behaviours and predilections for metastasis. Although salivary gland metastasis is an uncommon finding, it comprises of only 1-6% of all malignancies in the head and neck region. It is a common clinical practice to surgically resect salivary gland tumours which is followed by radiation to the tumour bed. The overall combination of chemo-radiation approaches has helped clinically control the

We report an unusual case of salivary gland adenocarcinoma metastasis to the brain in an adult with a key focus on its radiological perspective.
