Journal Title: Indian Journal of Pathology: Research and Practice - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Basal cell adenoma (BCA) is a rare benign epithelial tumor of salivary gland. Amongst the head and neck tumors, salivary gland tumors constitute about 2- 6.5% and of these, basal cell adenoma accounts for about 1-3%. We present a rare case of BCA of salivary gland with fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) findings and its correlation with histopathological observations along with review of literature.
