-:* [[Squamous cell carcinoma]] of the cervix: accounts for the vast majority (80-90%) of cases and is associated with exposure to human papilloma virus (HPV)
-:* [[Adenocarcinoma]] of the cervix: rarer (5-20%) and can have several sub types which include
-:* [[Clear cell carcinoma]] of the cervix
-:* [[Endometroid carcinoma]] of the cervix: ~7% of adenocarcinomas
-:* [[Mucinous carcinoma]] of the cervix
-:* [[Adenoma malignum]]: ~3% of adenocarcinomas
-:* [[Serous carcinoma]] of the cervix
-:* [[Mesonephric carcinoma]] of the cervix: ~3% of adenocarcinomas
-:* [[Neuroendocrine tumours]] of the cervix
-:* [[Small cell carcinoma]] of the cervix: rare (0.5-6%)
-:* [[Adenosquamous cell carcinoma]] of the cervix: rare
