Basal-cell adenoma and basal-cell adenocarcinoma of the salivary gland are rare tumors. Fine-needle aspiration cytology of these tumors, particularly those of basal-cell adenocarcinoma, has rarely been described in the literature. In this report, we describe the clinical, cytomorphologic and histopathologic features of basal cell adenocarcinoma in a 48-year-old male patient. Fine-needle aspiration specimen showed abundant cohesive groups of basaloid cells revealing focal anisonucleosis and nuclear atypia. The tumor cells also showed rosette-like arrangement around central eosinophilic globule. Pertinent literature is reviewed and differential diagnosis are discussed.
涎腺基底细胞腺瘤和基底细胞腺癌是罕见肿瘤。这些肿瘤的细针穿刺细胞学检查，尤其是基底细胞腺癌的细针穿刺细胞学检查，在文献中很少被描述。在本报告中，我们描述了一名48岁男性患者基底细胞腺癌的临床、细胞形态学和组织病理学特征。细针穿刺标本显示大量紧密聚集的基底样细胞，可见局灶性核大小不一和核异型性。肿瘤细胞还围绕中央嗜酸性小球呈玫瑰花结样排列。回顾了相关文献并讨论了鉴别诊断。
