What is Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that develops in the thin tissue lining that surrounds and protects the lungs, abdomen and heart. The main cause of mesothelioma is from a person being exposed to asbestos and then either inhaling or ingesting it. Tiny asbestos fibers enter the body via tracheal or esophageal pathways.
