Overview
Laryngeal carcinoma may be classified into more than 14 subtypes based on anatomical and histological characteristics.
Classification
Laryngeal carcinoma may be classified into more than 14 subtypes based on anatomical and histological characteristics.
Anatomical Classification of Laryngeal Carcinoma
Based on anatomy, laryngeal carcinoma can be classified as:[1]
| Laryngeal cancer | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Supraglottis | Glottis | Subglottis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Histologic Classification of Laryngeal Carcinoma
Based on histology, laryngeal carcinoma can be classified as:[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)
