Canalicular adenoma with unicystic morphology. A rare entity
2021
Background Canalicular adenoma (CA) is a benign salivary gland tumor (SGT) almost exclusively affecting the minor salivary glands, predominantly of the upper lip, and exhibiting characteristic histopathologic features. As observed in several other SGTs, a commonly encountered finding is the presence of prominent cystic morphology. Even though a multicystic appearance is usually noticed, solitary cystic CAs may rarely occur. Case report Two female patients (74 and 78 years old respectively) presented for the evaluation of submucosal asymptomatic masses of the oral cavity. In the 1st case a solitary nodule was noticed in the upper lip, while the 2nd patient exhibited two symmetrical lesions o…
Adenoma de células basales de glándula parótida: Caso clínico y revisión de la literatura
2006
El adenoma de células basales de las glándulas salivares es un tipo de adenoma monomorfo de aparición infrecuente. La localización más habitual es la superficie de la glándula parótida. Suele debutar clínicamente como una masa firme y desplazable de crecimiento lento. Histológicamente se observan células isomórficas formando nidos y trabéculas interanastomosadas, con una membrana basal prominente, separadas por un estroma laxo e hialino y ausencia de estroma mixoide o condroide. A diferencia del adenoma pleomorfo, tiende a la multicentricidad y su tasa de recurrencia después de la extirpación quirúrgica es alta. Debido a sus implicaciones pronósticas, el diagnóstico diferencial con el adeno…
AN UNCOMMON BASAL CELL ADENOMA OF PALATE: A CASE REPORT

An unusual case report of basal cell adenoma: A Diagnostic Enchanter
2014
Oral lesions show a wide range of biologic behaviours. There are various lesions which may mimic others and present in such an unusual manner thus making them very difficult to diagnose clinico-pathologically. An accurate diagnosis is not only important for correct treatment planning but also for determination of prognosis. Thus, it is very important for a surgical pathologist to be aware of the various atypical presentations of the lesions. The present unusual case report of basal cell adenoma occurring on upper lip with frank areas of calcifications and abundant inspissated mucoid secretions is an example of one such case. BCA is an uncommon benign epithelial salivary gland neoplasm. It i…
