[PMID: 37511697 PMCID: PMC10381862 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13071084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Non-squamous cell laryngeal carcinoma includes endothelial tumors, such as minor salivary gland tumors, lymphoepithelial tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, soft and hard tissue sarcomas, and malignant melanomas. (2) Methods: A state-of-the-art review using the MEDLINE/PUBMED, Google Scholar, Ovid Medline, Embase, and Scopus electronic databases was performed. (3) Conclusions: In order to optimize overall treatment outcomes, a multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach to the management of non-SCC of the larynx must be adopted universally; a national or international registry on non-SCC laryngeal cancer can be useful to improve understanding about the behavior of this kind of tumor.

Abstract
This paper discusses the indications for neck dissection in those patients with laryngeal tumours which prove to be, on pathologic examination, not conventional squamous carcinomas but rather fall into the category either of one of the uncommon histological subtypes of carcinoma, or another type of unusual histological variant of laryngeal malignancy, a mesenchymal tumour. It appears as though these unusual laryngeal malignancies may manifest both biological behaviours and propensities to metastasize to regional lymph nodes that differ from those of the more commonly encountered conventional squamous carcinomas of the larynx. This heterogeneous group of tumours accounts for about 10 per cent of all malignant tumours of the larynx.
