“…The markers of myoepithelial differentiation such as SMA, S100, P63 and vimentin may be expressed in BCAC particularly by cells at the periphery of tumour nests (Williams et al, 1993;Kim et al, 1997;Andreadis et al, 2005;Farrell and Chang, 2007). CEA stain was negative in the present case as well as in several other case reports (Raslan et al, 1995;Parashar et al, 2007;Sarafraz et al, 2015). Although SMA is a marker of myoepithelial differentiation, it has been reported as negative in several reports, including the present one (Andreadis et al, 2005;Farrell and Chang, 2007;Parashar et al, 2007;Jung et al, 2013).…”

Basal cell adenocarcinoma (BCAC) is a very rare slow-growing malignant basaloid tumour of the minor salivary gland. We reported a case of BCAC of the minor salivary gland of the hard palate occurring in a 56-year-old man. BCAC shares overlapping histopathological features with the other oral basaloid cell neoplasms which carries different prognosis and treatment modality. We emphasised on the histomorphologic features and the role of immunohistochemistry panel in the differential diagnosis of BCAC in incisional biopsies.

“…Swelling is usually the only symptom but sometimes it also causes pain and occasionally remains undiagnosed for ten years. It has been categorized into four types based on its histological pattern of growth: solid, membranous, trabecular and tubular (4)(5)(6) . Given its low incidence and scarce bibliographic information, it is often difficult to diagnose it (7) .…”

Basal cell adenocarcinoma is an epithelial neoplasm with the cytological characteristics of basal cell adenoma but with a morphological pattern of infiltrative growth indicative of malignancy. Due to its low incidence it is often difficult to diagnose a basal cell adenocarcinoma. The objective of the present study was to identify morphological and immunohistochemical characteristics that contribute to its diagnosis. A parotid tumor was resected in a 52-year-old patient; postoperative biopsy and immunostaining with Ki-67, CK19, p63 and alpha-smooth muscle actin were performed. It was diagnosed basal cell adenocarcinoma that invades the tumor capsule, periglandular fat and lymph nodes. Immunostaining with Ki-67, CK19, p63 and alpha-smooth muscle actin was positive. Subsequently, a maxillary sinus metastasis was diagnosed. The morphological characteristics, Ki-67 expression strongly positive and metastasis give the malignant character to this tumor, which differentiates it from the basal cell adenoma.
