description Sarcomatoid carcinomas, also known as spindle cell carcinomas (SPCCs), are rare carcinomas, predominantly developing in the lung. They have lots of features of sarcoma in their histological features. The standard laryngeal carcinoma classification is based on tumor size, lymph node affection, and metastasis (TNM), it is the classification scheme of the American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging (AJCC), and it is used in the same way for stage spindle cell carcinoma (SPCC). We present a case report of a young female along with a literature review of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the larynx.
