Mesothelioma Asbestos Resource

A Mesothelioma Asbestos Resource site is an educational resource for those who suffer from malignant mesothelioma or know somebody that suffers from mesothelioma or asbestosis. Included within this site are sections covering the medical issues involved with mesothelioma, available treatment options and support groups, as well as legal remedies for victims of this form of lung cancer.

Mesothelioma is a malignant form of lung cancer that affects the cells that form the lining around the outside of the lungs (pleura), but that can also occur in the abdomen (peritoneum) or around the heart (pericardium). Affected cells grow without restraint and can eventually form a malignant tumor that can destroy these vital organs. The cancer can remain virtually ‘dormant’ for 20 to 40 years after the initial exposure. Mesothelium cancer and asbestos-related pleural disease is diagnosed in approximately 5 million individuals every year.
