Overview

Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung may be classified according to the WHO histological classification system into 4 main types: papillary, clear cell, small cell, and basaloid.[1]

Classification

  • There are 4 main types of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung:
    • Papillary
    • Clear cell
    • Small cell
    • Basaloid
  • The table below summarizes the WHO histological classification system for squamous cell carcinoma of the lung.[2][3]
