Mesothelioma or the cancer of mesothelium is a disease caused by the abnormality of cells of mesothelium that causes a division without order or control. The cells can therefore invade and damage the nearby organs and tissue. These cancer cells can also metastasize or spread from their initial site and rapidly spread to other parts of the body. Most notable cases of mesothelioma are those that begin in the peritoneum or the pleura. This type of cancer is still rare with almost 2000 cases being reported each in the United States. It occurs more in men than in women, with risks increasing with age but it can affect both men and women of any age…Read more here:
Malignant mesothelioma is a rare type of cancer that occurs in the thin layer of cells lining the body's internal organs, known as the mesothelium. There are three recognized types of mesothelioma. Pleural mesothelioma is the most common form of the disease, accounting for roughly 70% of cases, and occurs in the lining of the lung known as the pleura. Peritoneal mesothelioma occurs in the lining of the abdominal cavity, known as the peritoneum and pericardial mesothelioma originates in the pericardium, which lines the heart.
