Mesothelioma and Asbestos Exposure
Malignant mesothelioma afflicts the linings of organs internal to them. The most significant risk factor is asbestos exposure.
Asbestos is a heat and fire-resistant mineral fiber that was utilized in many occupations until it was banned in the 1970s. Miner, construction workers shipyard, factory, and veteran employees are at risk the most of exposure.
What is Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a cancer that is found in the linings that surround different organs of the body known as the mesothelium. Most often, malignant mesothelioma forms in the lung (pleura) and abdomen. However, it can also form in the lining of the heart (pericardium) or testes. Each year, mesothelioma is diagnosed in a few thousand Americans. Exposure to asbestos is the sole known cause of mesothelioma. Asbestos is a fibrous substance that was once a popular choice in American industries because it is affordable and fire-proof. It was used to build cars, homes, and buildings. People who worked on these projects could have been exposed to asbestos as workers cut, removed or handled the materials. Exposure to these substances can cause mesothelioma for years after the exposure.
It is difficult to identify mesothelioma because the first symptoms are similar to other illnesses like lung cancer. The initial signs include chest pain, trouble breathing, and a constant cough. As the disease progresses, more serious symptoms, including weight loss and fatigue may develop.
There are four different types of mesothelioma. Each type has a distinct prognosis. The most prevalent type is pleural mesothelioma which affects the lung lining and chest cavity (pleura). Other mesothelioma types are peritoneal, pericardial or testicular. Each kind has its own distinct symptoms, but all types are characterized by an inflamed and malignant tumor that encircles vital organs and disrupts their function.
If a doctor suspects mesothelioma, they will request a biopsy to look for cancerous cells. A tissue sample taken from the affected area is examined using microscope. If cancer is found, patients can be diagnosed with epithelioid or mesothelioma that is sarcomatoid. Epithelioid mesothelioma accounts for 70 percent to 80percent of mesothelioma cases and is more responsive to treatment. Sarcomatoid Mesothelioma is only 10% of mesothelioma cases and has a worse prognosis.
Anyone who has come into contact with asbestos is at the risk of developing mesothelioma. Certain groups are at greater risk of developing mesothelioma than others. These include those who work in the asbestos case industry, military veterans and those who have mesothelioma in their family. People who have had radiation therapy related to asbestos are also at a higher chance of developing mesothelioma.
Mesothelioma Symptoms
Mesothelioma is a cancer that develops in the tissues that line and protect organs in the internal such as the lung (pleura) and abdomen (peritoneum). The chance of developing mesothelioma is increased when asbestos is exposed at work. The most frequent mesothelioma type is pleural mesothelioma. This affects the lining of the lung.
Asbestos fibers can cause irritation to mesothelium. As time passes cells become damaged and genetic changes make them malignant. Tumors form. The symptoms of mesothelioma can vary and can include coughing, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. Other symptoms include fatigue and nausea. Weight loss is another symptom. Mesothelioma is a rare type of cancer that can take from 10 to 60 years for the first signs to show. It is often misinterpreted as other illnesses like pneumonia or the flu. Mesothelioma is not easy to identify because it is not common and the symptoms are similar to those of other diseases.
Doctors typically do not connect mesothelioma to asbestos exposure until mesothelioma that is in late-stage. The doctor will ask about the patient's past asbestos exposure and conduct an examination. Imaging scans can be used by doctors to diagnose mesothelioma and rule out other illnesses.
The doctor may also suggest blood tests and imaging scans for the chest or abdomen. The imaging tests can include CT scans, MRI, PET scans, or X-rays. A biopsy can be requested by the doctor to confirm the diagnosis of mesothelioma and to determine which mesothelioma type is present. The biopsy may be an exploratory procedure or a minimally invasive procedure.
When they perform the procedure, doctors take out mesothelium from small amounts and search for mesothelioma. The majority of mesothelioma cases are epithelioid. The sarcomatoid type is not as responsive to treatment and is more likely to have shorter lives. The epithelioid is more responsive to treatment and has a much better prognosis. The biphasic type is a combination of the first two types and accounts for 30% to 40% of all mesothelioma diagnosis.
Causes of Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is most often found in the lung linings and the abdomen. It may also be present in the linings of the heart or the pericardium. About 3,000 people are diagnosed with mesothelioma every year. It is the sole known cancer caused by asbestos. Mesothelioma is a cancer that typically takes 20-50 years to develop following exposure to asbestos.
Asbestos is a mineral found naturally with properties that resist heat. For many years, it was used in many American industries because it was cheap and fire-resistant. The asbestos industry was especially lucrative for the construction sector in which it was utilized as a fireproofing and insulating material in buildings, ships automobiles, and other products. Construction workers were the most at risk of asbestos exposure.
Workers who worked with asbestos or took it away were exposed to fibers that are sharp and may cause serious health problems. These fibers can be easily swallowed and inhaled and can cause irritation to the mesothelium. In time the irritation causes scar tissue to build up and can cause tumors.
Different mesothelioma types affect different parts of the body. The most prevalent type of mesothelioma affects the lining of the chest cavity and lungs. It is the most prevalent type of mesothelioma and can cause symptoms such as breathing problems or discomfort. Mesothelioma can also affect the lining in the abdominal cavity, causing symptoms like pain, swelling, or digestive problems. It can also affect the heart's lining and cause unique symptoms like chest pain or palpitations.
Mesothelioma symptoms can be mistaken with other ailments. It is crucial to see your doctor if any of these symptoms appear. Your doctor will perform an examination of your body and may order imaging scans to look for any abnormalities. These tests can include CT scans, MRIs and PET scans. These tests will allow doctors to determine if mesothelioma related changes are present in your body.
Mesothelioma is not a contagious disease however, family members of those exposed to asbestos have a higher risk of developing the disease.

Secondary asbestos exposure is the term used to describe this type of secondhand asbestos exposure.
Treatment for Mesothelioma
Like other cancers mesothelioma develops when cells within the body develop abnormalities and begin to expand uncontrollably. They may also reproduce and spread to other parts of the body, leading to tumors (masses) to form.
The main risk factor for mesothelioma is exposure asbestos. Asbestos was a fibrous mineral employed in construction, and other industries before it was banned in the 1970s. When exposed, the microscopic fibres can be inhaled and consumed. They can then be encased in the linings of specific organs and cause mesothelioma.
Mesothelioma is most common in those who have been exposed to asbestos claim. This includes those who are responsible for removing or handling it. Blue-collar workers, and even the family members of asbestos workers are at risk.
