So, different types of throat cancers are named after their place of origination, both the location of the body and the cell type. Throat cancer that begins in the squamous cells of the pharynx, for example, would be called squamous cell carcinoma of the pharynx.

The larynx assists in breathing, speaking, and even swallowing. When the cells that make up the tissue of the larynx begin to multiply and divide at an unusual rate it is called laryngeal cancer. Most laryngeal cancers are squamous cell carcinomas, or cancer that originates in the first layer &amp;lt;a data-inlink=&amp;quot;jic7BsZAqxJbDtuydGusNQ&amp;amp;#61;&amp;amp;#61;&amp;quot; href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/types-of-skin-cancer-514384&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;12&amp;quot;&amp;gt;of skin cells&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;. &amp;lt;a data-inlink=&amp;quot;k1oE3itMs0Q-kRUNo32-rA&amp;amp;#61;&amp;amp;#61;&amp;quot; href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/laryngeal-cancer-514098&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;13&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Symptoms of laryngeal cancer&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; include a cough that does not go away, &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/what-causes-an-earache-1191885&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;14&amp;quot;&amp;gt;earaches&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, a sore throat, &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/voice-loss-and-hoarseness-causes-and-treatment-1192034&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;15&amp;quot;&amp;gt;hoarseness&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; and other voice changes.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;h3&amp;gt;Pharyngeal Cancer&amp;lt;/h3&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The pharynx is the portion of the throat that begins behind the nose and and stretches about five inches before it ends at the esophagus and trachea. &amp;lt;a data-inlink=&amp;quot;9Weufa13JGfNolgt6fzdmA&amp;amp;#61;&amp;amp;#61;&amp;quot; href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/what-is-pharyngitis-1191977&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;16&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Pharyngeal cancer&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; is sometimes referred to as simply throat cancer or &amp;lt;a data-inlink=&amp;quot;Z0Bgidh6tit17L48WgNK6Q&amp;amp;#61;&amp;amp;#61;&amp;quot; href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/oral-cancer-what-is-oral-cancer-514254&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;oral cancer&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, but it&amp;amp;#39;s sometimes further classified as cancer of the nasopharynx, oropharynx or hypopharynx, depending on its exact location.
