Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma occurs when asbestos fibers cause irritation and harm the cells that line the lung (pleura) or abdominal cavity (peritoneum). These abnormal cells can grow into tumors.
Symptoms of mesothelioma take 10 - 50 years for symptoms to show up and are often confused with other ailments. The only known risk factor is asbestos exposure.
Pleural Mesothelioma
Pleural mesothelioma can affect the lung and chest wall. People diagnosed with this type of mesothelioma typically have symptoms such as breathing difficulty, chest pain and coughing. Certain patients also have an accumulation of fluid between their chest wall and the lung which is known as a Pleural effusion. Pleural mesothelioma happens when asbestos fibers inflame the lung's lining and the chest cavity. Over time the affected tissue develops tumors that grow into the pleura. The tumors can expand to the peritoneum or bones, and to the liver.
After asbestos exposure it can take anywhere from 20 to 50 years to develop pleural Mesothelioma. The people who were exposed in the workplace to asbestos claim are at the greatest risk of developing the disease. Blue-collar workers and veterans working on ships and in shipyards are especially at risk.
It can take a few weeks before a doctor can diagnose pleural asbestosis. It is possible to experience breathing problems, a dry cough, chest pain and fatigue. Patients suffering from this condition could also experience an unprovoked low fever or weight loss. A doctor can detect mesothelioma after taking a medical history of the patient's exposure to asbestos and conducting a physical exam. X-rays of the chest or CT scans may be performed. These tests can reveal fluid buildup in the chest cavity or a tumor around one of the lung's.
The first step in treating pleural msothelioma is to drain the excess fluid. Doctors can accomplish this by the procedure known as thoracentesis which involves inserting a small tube into the chest cavity between two ribs. This tube provides doctors with the ability to examine the area and then collect samples of pleural fluid. A doctor can then test the fluid to determine whether it is cancerous or not.
A patient's prognosis for pleural mesothelioma depends on several factors such as the stage of the tumor as well as the extent of the cancer. A patient's age as well as smoking habits can influence the prognosis. A person's survival rate is also influenced by their overall health and how quickly they seek treatment following a diagnosis. Asbestos patients who are treated aggressively and early have the highest chance of a favorable outcome.
Peritoneal Mesothelioma
Peritoneal Mesothelioma occurs along the lining that surrounds the abdomen, called the peritoneum. This type of mesothelioma is less common than pleural mesothelioma, but it is still fatal. Work-related exposure to asbestos is the primary reason for mesothelioma of the peritoneal region. Asbestos fibers that are inhaled or ingested enter the digestive system, and then travel through the lymphatic system to the tissues of the peritoneal region. Once inside, they irritate cells and cause DNA damage. In time, the inflammation causes scar tissue to form and tumors to grow.
Like other mesothelioma types, peritoneal mesothelioma can take years to manifest. It is also difficult to diagnose as its symptoms are similar to other abdominal issues. Thus, patients with peritoneal Msothelioma are often misdiagnosed and delayed in their treatment.
Patients with peritoneal mesothelioma suffer severe abdominal pain and fever, and weight loss. They may have difficulty digesting food due to the accumulation of abdominal fluid and are at a greater risk of developing anemia, or low levels of albumin in their blood.
Similar to other types of cancer, doctors can diagnose the presence of peritoneal cancer with a biopsy. This procedure involves removing an insignificant portion of the affected tissue to be examined under microscope. These tests can reveal whether the tumors are active or not, as well as the type of cancerous cells present (epithelioid sarcomatoid).
Doctors assign a peritoneal stage for mesothelioma according to its location, amount of tumor growth, and the rate of spread to other tissues. The larger the tumors and the more aggressive cell type, the more advanced the mesothelioma's stage.
Patients with mesothelioma should consult a specialist doctor who is specially trained in this rare condition. Patients risk misdiagnosing their symptoms as an abdominal problem and receiving treatment later. This could be a major issue due to mesothelioma's long latency period and requires a precise diagnosis to ensure proper treatment.
Cardiac Mesothelioma
Although peritoneal and pleural mesothelioma represent the most prevalent types of asbestos-related cancers, patients may also be diagnosed with mesothelioma of the pericardium. This rare form of disease develops when asbestos fibers are found in the tissue of the heart. It can be difficult to determine the cause because the symptoms are similar to those of other illnesses. Patients who suffer from pericardial mesothelioma should disclose their history of exposure to asbestos to their medical professionals and share any recent symptoms with them.
Pericardial mesothelioma is more prevalent for men than women. However, researchers are not sure what causes this difference. Researchers aren't certain the reason for this distinction. It could be different asbestos case exposures that cause pericardial Mesothelioma or the risk increases with the age.
A patient's doctor might be able to detect pericardial mesothelioma after performing a physical exam and asking about their exposure to asbestos. The doctor can request a CT scan and chest xray to determine if there are any signs of fluid accumulation around your heart (known as the pericardial effusion).
Pericardial mesothelioma typically develops in the membrane that encases the heart. These symptoms can be grave and could affect a patient's quality of life. These symptoms can include chest discomfort, breathing difficulties and breath shortness. In some instances, the fluid can build up and put pressure on the heart, which can cause cardiac tamponade.

Reproductive Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma may affect the lining of organs like the abdomen, chest, or the heart. It may also affect the lining of the eyes (periocular) and testicles. Rarely, mesothelioma is found in other parts of the body, including the stomach, kidneys, or heart valves. Mesothelioma is most commonly found in the lungs or chest wall. However, mesothelioma can occur in the abdominal cavity and the heart's lining (pericardium).
Mesothelioma is primarily caused by asbestos exposure. Blue-collar workers and the military in the United States were exposed to asbestos in large amounts. Asbestos producers knew asbestos was dangerous, however they did not warn employees or disclose dangers. From the 1930s to the 1980s, asbestos was extensively employed in shipbuilding, construction and power plants. Asbestos exposure can cause mesothelioma as well as lung cancer.
Most cases of mesothelioma do not manifest until years after exposure. The disease is often not properly diagnosed. Symptoms can appear between 20 and 60 year after asbestos exposure.
Symptoms of mesothelioma can include breathlessness chest pain, persistent cough, or fluids in the lungs. Mesothelioma is difficult to diagnose because of its rarity and the fact that it can mimic many other illnesses such as pneumonia and lung cancer.
A doctor will look over your medical history in order to detect mesothelioma and other health issues. He or she will ask about your work history and whether you've been exposed to asbestos. Mesothelioma is more prevalent for those who worked in industries which handled or shipped asbestos.
The treatment options for mesothelioma are contingent on the type of cancer and its stage. In most cases, surgery and chemotherapy are the most common treatment options. Radiation therapy is sometimes utilized. Immunotherapy is another option for treating mesothelioma. The research is still in its very early stages.
