Tonsils are mainly a pair of oval shaped pads that are situated at the back of the mouth and are a part of the immune system of the body equipped in fighting off the germs. It is basically located in an area known as the oropharynx. It is to be seen to develop in people who have undergone a tonsil removal operation and a small piece of tonsil tissue might be left behind leading to this type of cancer.

1. Pharyngeal Tonsils, also known as Adenoids that are situated behind the nose
2. Palatine Tonsils, which are situated the back of the throat
3. Lingual Tonsils which are present at the base of the tongue
