Mesothelioma is a sort of cancer which is being exposed as well as found recurrently in elderly men. The widespread cause of mesothelioma is from asbestos exposure and it affects the membrane of many of the most vital internal organs such as the lungs and heart to the maximum. Above all mesothelioma is very hard to diagnose as it shows similar symptoms to many other common diseases and the most common form of mesothelioma is known by the name pleural mesothelioma. This form of mesothelioma accounts for 75% of all mesothelioma cases and the symptoms apply to less serious diseases. Any person with signs of the symptoms of pleural mesothelioma is strongly advised to consult their doctor at the earliest. A less common form of mesothelioma is peritoneal mesothelioma and this affects the abdomen fully.
