Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma happens when asbestos fibers cause irritation and cause damage to the cells that line the lung (pleura) or abdominal cavity (peritoneum). In time, these abnormal cells develop into tumors.

The symptoms of mesothelioma can take anywhere from 10 to 50 years to show up and are often confused with other illnesses. The only risk factor that is known is a history of asbestos exposure.

Pleural Mesothelioma

Pleural mesothelioma affects the lungs and chest wall. Patients diagnosed with this form of mesothelioma usually suffer from symptoms like chest pain, breathing difficulty and coughing. In addition some patients experience the formation of fluid in the lung's space and chest wall, referred to as an the pleural effusion. Asbestos fibers may cause irritation to the tissues of the chest and lung. In time, the irritated lining forms tumors that expand into the pleura. The tumors may spread to the peritoneum, bones, and the liver.

It typically takes 20 to 50 years to develop pleural cancer following exposure to asbestos. Those who were exposed at work to asbestos are at the greatest risk of developing the disease. Blue-collar workers as well as veterans working on ships and shipyards are particularly at risk.

A person may experience symptoms for several weeks prior to doctors diagnose pleural mesothelioma. The symptoms include chest pain, fatigue and a dry cough. Patients suffering from this condition might also experience an unusually low temperature and weight loss. A doctor can diagnose mesothelioma after taking a history of the patient's asbestos exposure and conducting a physical examination. X-rays of the chest or CT scans are possible. These tests may reveal an accumulation of fluids in the chest cavity or a tumor in one of the lungs.

The first step to treat pleural msothelioma is draining the excess fluid. Doctors can accomplish this by a procedure called thoracentesis which involves inserting a thin tube into the chest cavity between two ribs. This tube allows doctors to observe the area and take samples of the fluid in the pleural cavity. The fluid can be examined by a doctor to determine whether it is cancerous.

The prognosis of a patient with pleural mesothelioma depends on several factors including the stage of the tumor as well as the extent of the cancer. The prognosis can be affected by patient's age, and whether or not they smoke. A person's survival rate is also affected by their overall health and the speed at which they seek treatment following an diagnosis. Asbestos victims who are treated early and aggressively have the greatest chance of a successful outcome.

Peritoneal Mesothelioma

Peritoneal mesothelioma develops along the abdomen's lining, also known as the peritoneum. While this type of mesothelioma has a lower incidence than the most prevalent form, pleural mesothelioma, it is still a deadly disease. Work-related exposure to asbestos is the primary cause of mesothelioma peritoneal. Asbestos fibers inhaled or consumed enter the digestive system, and then move through the lymphatic system to reach the tissues of the peritoneal region. Once they are there, they cause irritation to cells and damage DNA. Over time the inflammation that occurs creates scar tissue and causes tumours to form.

Peritoneal mesothelioma is a cancer that can take years to develop. It's also a challenging cancer to identify because its symptoms resemble many other abdominal disorders. In the end, patients with peritoneal mesothelioma are often wrongly diagnosed or delay treatment.

Patients with peritoneal asbestosis experience severe abdominal discomfort and fever, as well as weight loss. They may experience difficulty digesting food due to the buildup of abdominal fluid and are at a higher chance of developing anemia or low levels of albumin in their blood.

Similar to other types of cancer, doctors can diagnose peritoneal cancer through the use of a biopsy. This involves the removal of a small piece of affected tissue to be examined under a microscope. These tests will reveal if the tumors are active or not, as well as the type of cancerous cells present (epithelioid sarcomatoid).

Doctors assign a peritoneal stage to mesothelioma depending on its location, amount of growth and rate of spreading to other tissues. The larger the tumors and the more aggressive the cell type, the more advanced the mesothelioma stage.

Mesothelioma patients should always seek out a mesothelioma physician who has specialized training for this rare condition. Without such a physician patients run the risk of having their symptoms misdiagnosed as an abdominal problem that is more common and getting delayed treatment. This could be a major issue because mesothelioma has a long time of latency and requires a precise diagnosis to ensure that the right treatment is given.

Cardiac Mesothelioma

Patients may be diagnosed with pericardial tumors in addition to peritoneal or pleural asbestos lawsuit-related cancer. This rare type of disease occurs when asbestos fibers are found in the heart's lining. It is often difficult to determine the cause because the symptoms are similar to other diseases. Patients with pericardial mesothelioma should disclose their past exposure to asbestos to their physicians and discuss any symptoms that have occurred recently with them.

Similar to pleural mesothelioma and pericardial mesothelioma typically affects men more often than women. Researchers aren't sure of the root cause for this distinction. Researchers aren't sure what causes this difference. It could be different asbestos exposures that cause pericardial mesothelioma or the risk increases with the age.

After a physical examination and asking the patient about their exposure to asbestos, a physician might suspect pericardial cancer. The doctor can then request a chest x-ray and CT scan to see whether there is evidence of fluid accumulation around the heart (known as pericardial effusion).

Pericardial Mesothelioma is a condition that occurs mostly in the membrane that surrounds the heart. These symptoms can be very serious and hinder the patient's ability an ordinary life. They can be accompanied by chest pain, breathing difficulties and shortness of breath. In certain cases, the fluid may build up and cause tension on the heart, which can lead to cardiac tamponade.

Rarely, mesothelioma is found in other areas of the body, such as the stomach, kidneys, or heart valves. Mesothelioma typically develops in the chest wall and lungs. However, mesothelioma may also be found in the abdominal cavity and the heart's lining (pericardium).

Mesothelioma is mostly caused by asbestos exposure. Blue-collar workers and the military were exposed to huge amounts of asbestos in the United States. Asbestos producers knew asbestos was hazardous, but did not warn their employees or inform them of the risks. Asbestos was widely used in construction, shipbuilding power plants, shipbuilding, and the military during the 1930s and into the 1980s. Exposure to asbestos can cause mesothelioma as well as lung cancer.

In the majority of cases mesothelioma doesn't show up until several years after exposure. It is often misdiagnosed as other diseases. It could take between 20 to 60 years for symptoms to appear after exposure to asbestos.

Shortness of breath chest discomfort, a persistent cough or fluid in the lungs could be symptoms of mesothelioma. Mesothelioma can be difficult to recognize because it is so uncommon and its symptoms are similar to those of many other ailments, including pneumonia and lung cancer.

People who worked in industries that handled or shipped asbestos are more likely of developing mesothelioma compared to those who did not.

Mesothelioma treatment options vary based on the stage and type of the disease. In the majority of cases, surgery and chemotherapy are the most common treatments. Radiation therapy is sometimes utilized. Immunotherapy is another option to treat mesothelioma. The research is still in the very early stages of its development.
