    Abstract:
    Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) is a rare tumor with distinct morphological and biological features that differentiate it from the common form of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the head and neck region. It is mostly seen in the supraglottic larynx, hypopharynx and a base of the tongue. We present two cases of BSCC of the larynx; both being transglottic tumors. Both of the patients underwent primary surgery including bilateral neck dissections. None of the patients had cervical metastases at histopathological examination. Both patients received radiotherapy after surgery. They were alive and free of disease at 24 and 27 months, respectively.
