  • Title: Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck with a spindle cell component. An unusual histologic variant.
    Author: Muller S, Barnes L.
    Journal: Arch Pathol Lab Med; 1995 Feb; 119(2):181-2. PubMed ID: 7848067.
    Abstract:
    We describe two cases of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck with a spindle cell component. One tumor arose from the tonsil and the other in the larynx. Of the 30 cases of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma seen at this medical center, only 2 (6.6%) have demonstrated this histologic feature. To our knowledge, scant information exists with regards to a prominent spindle cell component occurring in basaloid squamous cell carcinoma, and none has been officially documented.
