ICD-O	M 8033/3

Sarcomatoid carcinoma is a relatively uncommon form of cancer whose malignant cells have histological, cytological, or molecular properties of both epithelial tumors ("carcinoma") and mesenchymal tumors ("sarcoma").

Sarcomatoid carcinomas of the lung

Histological variants of lung cancer classified as sarcomatoid carcinoma include pleomorphic carcinoma, giant cell carcinoma, spindle cell carcinoma, carcinosarcoma, and pulmonary blastoma.
