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, histopatho

Abstract
A case study of cutaneous Tβcell lymphoma in a 40βyrβold Indian male is presented. Prominent clinical features consisted of large skin tumours, lymphidenopathy, and a rapidly progressive course of development. Aspiration smears from tumours, lymph nodes, and bone marrow showed pleomorphic Sezary cells and lymphoid blasts. The neoplastic cells stained positively with antiβHLA DR, CD1, and CD2 antibodies and showed lack of Tβcell subset antigens CD4 and CD8. Numerous proliferating cells were identified with 56% of bone marrow cells and 57% of cells in the dermis staining positively with Kiβ67 and PC10 antibodies, respectively. This case is reported in view of its uncommon features. Diagn Cytopathol 1994;11:174β177. Β© 1994 WileyβLiss, Inc.
