==Overview==
** Keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma
Primary lung cancers may be classified into [[small cell lung cancer]] (~15%) and [[non small cell lung cancer]] (~85%).  [[Non small cell lung cancer]] are a heterogenous group of lung cancers that are often grouped together because they share similar clinical features (e.g. [[prognosis]] and management). The 2004 WHO histological classification of [[tumors]] of the [[lung]] categorized [[lung]] [[tumors]] into [[malignant]] [[epithelial]] [[tumors]], [[benign]] [[epithelial]] [[tumors]], [[Lymphoproliferative disorders|lymphoproliferative tumors]], miscellaneous [[tumors]], and [[metastatic]] [[tumors]].
** Nonkeratinizing squamous cell carcinoma
** Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma
** Preinvasive lesion
*** Squamous cell carcinoma in situ


==Classification==
=== Neuroendocrine tumors ===
Primary lung cancers may be classified into two main categories:<ref name="WHO">{{cite book | last = Travis | first = William | title = Pathology and genetics of tumours of the lung, pleura, thymus, and heart | publisher = IARC Press | location = Lyon | year = 2004 | isbn = 9283224183 }}</ref>
