Basal cell adenoma (BCA) is a rare neoplasm which is one of the basaloid tumors of salivary gland. Basaloid tumors are the most difficult problem in salivary gland fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). There are various benign and malignant tumors such as; cellular pleomorphic adenoma, basal cell adenocarcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, metastatic basal cell carcinoma, metastatic basaloid squamous carcinoma and small cell carcinoma in differential diagnosis. We present a case of BCA, membranous type in a 39-year-old female with right submandibular swelling misinterpreted as adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) on FNAC.
基底细胞腺瘤(BCA)是一种罕见的肿瘤,是涎腺基底样肿瘤之一。基底样肿瘤是涎腺细针穿刺细胞学检查(FNAC)中最棘手的问题。在鉴别诊断中存在多种良性和恶性肿瘤,如细胞性多形性腺瘤、基底细胞腺癌、腺样囊性癌、转移性基底细胞癌、转移性基底样鳞状癌和小细胞癌。我们报告一例39岁女性的膜性型基底细胞腺瘤病例,该患者右下颌下肿胀,在细针穿刺细胞学检查中被误诊为腺样囊性癌(ACC)。
