Patients with spiradenocarcinoma may benefit from a magnetic resonance imaging and fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography to establish the extent of disease. We recommend wide local excision as the treatment of choice to achieve surgical margins of ≥1 cm, with node resection to be determined on a case-to-case basis. Regular follow up is important given the high rate of local recurrence, metastasis and mortality. This should include an examination of the regional lymph nodes. Further research is required to refine an evidence-based approach to spiradenocarcinoma.
