Hypopharyngeal Spindle Cell Squamous Carcinoma

Preferred Label : Hypopharyngeal Spindle Cell Squamous Carcinoma;

NCIt synonyms : Hypopharyngeal Spindle Cell Carcinoma;

NCIt definition : A squamous cell carcinoma that arises from the hypopharynx. It is characterized by the presence of a malignant spindle cell cellular component. In some cases, there is a biphasic morphology due to the presence of a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma component. The latter is either in situ or invasive squamous cell carcinoma.;

Neoplastic status : Malignant;
