1. Glottal type

This type of laryngeal cancer is confined to the vocal cords, with more tumors in the front and middle sections, better differentiation, and slower development. Due to the small number of lymphatic vessels, it is not easy to metastasize. It can also develop upwards and downwards, and front and back.

2. Supraglottic type

Located in the laryngeal ventricle and above, including the laryngeal vestibule, epiglottal laryngeal surface, aryepiglottic folds, ventricular band and laryngeal ventricle. This type of laryngeal cancer is characterized by rich lymphatic vessels, rapid development, early lymph node metastasis, and poor prognosis.

3. Subglottic type

This type of laryngeal cancer is characterized by a tumor below the level of the vocal cords. The tumor may spread forward to invade the thyroid gland and backward to the esophagus. This type of cancer develops faster than vocal cord cancer, but metastasizes more slowly than supraglottic cancer.
