One of the most malignant and dangerous cancer type is Mesothelioma cancer. This disease is developed from cells of mesothelium that is actually outer lining of most of the organs of human body. There are different types of Mesothelioma depending upon which organ is affected by this cancer but in most cases Mesothelioma is found in pleura, the outer lining of lungs and internal chest walls. These are main targets made by mesothelial cells but it can also affect to other organs like esophagus or stomach etc. symptoms of this cancer doesn’t appear so early and are ignored y patients because these are so mild. Some people think of this as result of smoking tobacco but it’s not basically result of smoking but smoking can worsen the case. Little symptoms of this disease are shortness of breath, pleural effusion and chest pain etc. Maximum chance of patients survivor are if cancer is diagnosed in early stages before its too late. Different techniques and tests are taken to diagnose the ailment like X-Ray, CT scan or surgery etc.



We’ll talk about the causes of Mesothelioma and reasons why an individual gets affected. Main cause of Mesothelioma found is asbestos, people who work on such places where they inhale asbestos that can cause Mesothelioma. It’s the main cause found indisputably of Mesothelioma cancer but there are also many other causes of Mesothelioma instead of asbestos like inhaling of fibrous silicates, irradiation, Thorotrast etc. no doubt asbestos is found major cause of malignant Mesothelioma in most of the cases in USA but other things that are related to this cancer are mentioned can cause serious Mesothelioma. In case of animal Mesothelioma, simian virus 40 (SV40) is also found to be as a cofactor in development of Mesothelioma but in case of human its not confirmed yet and is inconclusive.
Asbestos was known to be in antiquity and was not used on major level in industry commercially but later on in late 19th century after world war-II its use was viral and on commercial level so many of the American workers of that place were found of asbestos exposed and lately developed Mesothelioma especially the workers of shipyard side. People who work on such places that are exposed to asbestos, mines, mills, workers in heating and other construction industries are under the supervision of US occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and US EPA. These both institutions are responsible for regulation on permissible exposure limits and protections of workers. All these institutions are working under the government supervision are take action against the industries which don’t follow the regulations made by these institutions and their cross their restricted boundaries. Also in British Government have established the department of Health and Safety Executive (HSE) that is responsible to hold the permissible amount of asbestos and safety of workers. Intensity of Mesothelioma depends upon the intensity of asbestos present in air, high intensity can cause lungs cancer too and other main thing to remember is the time one remains under the influence of asbestos air.
