Abstract

Spindle cell larynx carcinoma (SpCC) represents around 3% of laryngeal cancers. It is originated by a single cancer stem cell undergoing epithelial to mesenchymal transition. This explains the aggressiveness, the peculiar resistance to conventional therapy and the frequent relapses. We focused on this particular cancer subset characteristics in patients, in early and advanced stages primarily aiming to define and highlight the differences with Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (LSCC) focusing on clinical features, treatments, follow-up and survival in a patient's cohort composed by comparable cases from two subgroups.
