Pleural Mesothelioma Treatments

Pleural mesothelioma is another bad disease that may lead to death; this disease is a very dangerous and occurs when somebody deals with Asbestos materials. These materials was using in the manufacturing companies in the past. Most recording cases in USA that diagnosed as pleural mesothelioma victims were working in those manufacturing companies that were producing construction products like cement. The tumors of pleural mesothelioma "from the name" develop in the pleura in the chest cavity. Pleura are the outer lining of lungs. After the Asbestos exposure, symptoms of pleural mesothelioma may take from 30 to 50 years to appear.
The treatment options that available to treat pleural mesothelioma can be a mix of surgery option, chemotherapy option and radiotherapy option. There is much other option such as alternative medicine which can be effective also. In the surgery option, doctors may remove some parts of the affected area in the chest cavity, this part may be for test first then it may remove the tumors and the tissue that surrounds the tumor to ensure that is no any chance for malignant tumors to be redeveloped. In the chemical option "called chemotherapy option" because we use some special chemical to treat the cancer cells and the tumors. It can be effective with some cases, and it may be not effective with the other cases. Doctors may make mix with the two options. In the radiotherapy, we can use x-rays and gamma rays to kill the infected cells; it could be effective in some cases. Please, consult your doctor.

Understanding Pericardial Mesothelioma

There are three forms of mesothelioma. Among the three forms, pericardial mesothelioma is rarest and also very risky. Nearly 10% of the patients are suffering from pericardial mesothelioma. At present nearly 2000 new cases of mesothelioma is registered yearly. Out of which 200 cases are pericardial mesothelioma.

What is Pericardium?

Pericardium is nothing but the protective sac that surrounds the heart. It contains fluid called pericardial fluid, which provides lubrication as well as prevents shock caused by any external impact. Pericardium helps the heart to beat properly.

It is really obscure how the asbestos particles lodged into pericardium.

Symptoms

Although the symptoms of pericardial mesothelioma is similar to other mesothelioma forms, it is difficult for the health care provider to diagnose. The main differential diagnosis of this form of mesothelioma from other forms is heart palpitations. Some of the pericardial mesothelioma suffers may exhibit symptoms like cough, fever, and dyspnea (Difficult in breathing).

Treatment

If the symptoms of pericardial mesothelioma is exhibited, the cancer might have progressed to advance stage. It is not all possible to treat conventionally other than providing temporary relief of symptoms.

Prognosis

Prognosis is poor and the patient will usually die within six months of onset of pericardial mesothelioma. This is mainly due to the fact that diagnosis in early stage is really impossible in case of pericardial mesothelioma.

Asbestos Exposure: Who Is At Risk?

Asbestos was one of the most common industrial materials put to use in the twentieth century. It has also proven to be one of the most lethal, as inhaling asbestos fibers can lead to a wide range of pulmonary problems such as asthma and asbestosis - and can also be the direct cause of mesothelioma.

What is mesothelioma? It is a lethal cancer that attacks the membranes around the lungs, the heart and the abdominal cavity. Mesothelioma cancer of the lungs is by far the most common form. Perhaps its most unusual characteristic is that mesothelioma diagnosis usually occurs decades after the initial exposure to asbestos.

It takes years for the asbestos fibers to work their way into those membranes; after an extended presence they begin to cause fluid accumulation and tumor development. However the first mesothelioma symptoms are such afflictions as a persistent cough or shortness of breath - symptoms that are often mistaken for evidence of more common lung problems, which delays the mesothelioma diagnosis even further.
