Overview
Laryngeal carcinoma may be classified into more than 14 subtypes based on the anatomical and histological characteristics of the tumor. Anatomical classification includes supraglottic, glottic and subglottic laryngeal cancer. Based on histology, laryngeal carcinoma may be classified into 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) and atypical carcinoid tumor (moderately differentiated neuroendocrine 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)
