Özet

Most of the malignancies arising from the upper respiratory system are squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) is a rarely seen high grade variant of SCC that carries a poor prognosis. In this article, we present a case of BSCC of the larynx. In addition, we provide a review of the relevant literature along with a discussion of the differential diagnosis.
