Overview

Non-small cell lung cancer may be classified according to the WHO histological classification system into 3 main types; Squamous cell carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Other less common subtypes include adenosquamous lung carcinoma, pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma, carcinoid tumor of the lung, and carcinomas of the lung of salivary gland type.

Classification

There are 3 main types of non–small cell lung cancer:^[1]^[2]^[3]
The table below summarizes the WHO histological classification system for non small cell lung cancer.^[4]

WHO histological classification system Adapted from WHO/IARC (2006)
Main types	Subtypes	Prevalence
Adenocarcinoma	Adenocarcinoma, mixed Acinar adenocarcinoma Papillary adenocarcinoma Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma Nonmucinous Mucinous Mixed nonmucinous and mucinous or indeterminate Solid adenocarcinoma with mucin production Fetal adenocarcinoma Mucinous (“colloid”) carcinoma Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma Signet ring adenocarcinoma Clear cell adenocarcinoma	40% of lung cancers
Squamous cell carcinoma	Papillary Clear cell Small cell Basaloid	25% of lung cancers
Large cell carcinoma	Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma Basaloid carcinoma Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma Clear cell carcinoma Large cell carcinoma with rhabdoid phenotype	10% of lung cancer
Less common types
Adenosquamous carcinoma	No subtypes	Less than 5%
Sarcomatoid carcinoma	Pleomorphic carcinoma Spindle cell carcinoma Giant cell carcinoma Carcinosarcoma Pulmonary blastoma	Less than 5%
Carcinoid tumor	Typical carcinoid Atypical carcinoid	Less than 5%
Salivary gland tumor	Mucoepidermoid carcinoma Adenoid cystic carcinoma Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma	Less than 5%

 ==Overview==
+Non-small cell lung cancer may be classified according to the [[World Health Organization|WHO histological classification system]] into 3 main types; [[Squamous cell lung cancer|Squamous cell carcinoma]], [[Adenocarcinoma of the lung|lung adenocarcinoma]], and [[Large cell carcinoma of the lung|large cell carcinoma]]. Other less common subtypes include adenosquamous lung carcinoma, [[Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung|pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma]], [[carcinoid tumor of the lung]], and carcinomas of the lung of salivary gland type.
 ==Classification==
-* The most common type of lung cancer is non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). About 85%–90% of all lung cancers are non–small cell lung cancer. The other 10%–15% are small cell lung cancer.
