==Basal cell adenoma==
==Basal cell adenoma==
===General===
*~2% of salivary gland tumours.
*May be multifocal.
*Usu. parotid gland, occasionally submandibular gland.
===Microscopic===
===Microscopic===
Features:
Features:
*Basophilic cells.
*Basophilic cells.
*Nests.
*Usu. nests; may be bilayed tubules ''or'' trabeculae.
 
Notes:
*No chondromyxoid stroma.
**Chondromyxoid stroma present -> pleomorphic adenoma.
*Neoplastic cells embeded in stroma ("stromal invasion") = basal cell adenocarcinoma.
**Basal cell adenocarcinoma may be cytologically indistinguishable from basal cell adenoma, i.e. "bad" architecture makes it a basal cell adenocarcinoma.
 
===IHC===
*Luminal stains +ve: CK7 +ve, CAM5.2 +ve.
