Overview

Laryngeal carcinoma may be classified into more than 14 subtypes based on the anatomical and histological characteristics of the tumor.

Histologic Classification of Laryngeal Carcinoma

Based on histology, laryngeal carcinoma may be classified into:[1]

  • Acantholytic squamous cell carcinoma
  • Adenosquamous carcinoma
  • Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma
  • Papillary squamous cell carcinoma
  • Spindle cell squamous cell carcinoma
  • Verrucous carcinoma
  • Giant cell carcinoma
  • Lymphoepithelial carcinoma (non-nasopharyngeal)
  • Neuroendocrine carcinoma
  • Typical carcinoid tumor (well differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma)
  • Atypical carcinoid tumor (moderately differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma)
