Basal cell adenoma is an uncommon salivary gland tumor. Its occurrence is mainly noted in the parotid gland and rarely in the submandibular gland. Owing to therapeutic and prognostic implications, differential diagnosis with adenoid cystic carcinoma is mandatory. The tubular variant is the least common histologic type and its occurrence in the submandibular salivary gland makes this case interesting to document.
