Three cases of monomorphic basal cell adenoma of the parotid glands were studied with light microscopy. In one patient, fresh tissue was available for electron microscopic observations. On the basis of ultrastructural findings it was concluded that myoepithelial cells play little, if any, role in the histogenesis of this lesion. The tumor originates from the undifferentiated stem cells analogous to the cells seen at the "end bud" stage of salivary gland morphogenesis prior to their further cytodifferentiation and functional maturation into secretory and myoepithelial cells. In fully developed salivary glands such undifferentiated stem cells reside as "reserve" cells in the intercalated ductal system.
