Cancer Mesothelioma Review-Asbestos Exposure and the Different Subclasses of Mesothelioma

Seminars in Oncology - Volume 29, Issue 1, Pages 62-69 (February 2002) by Paul Baas

Here is an excerpt:

" It has been a challenge to find effective chemotherapeutic treatments for malignant mesothelioma. Over the last several decades numerous single-drug and combination regimens have been examined, but no standard treatment with chemotherapy alone has emerged. Possible explanations for this lack of success are the heterogeneity between the different subclasses of mesothelioma and the difficulties experienced in determining responses on computed tomographic (CT) scan.

Asbestos Related Lung Cancer

This kind of cancer differs from Mesothelioma Cancer in that the cancerous cells begin developing from within airways. Lung cancer can develop in response to asbestos irritation in the trachea, bronchial tubes, or bronchioles and spread to other organs throughout the body if not diagnosed and treated early. Cigarette smokers who are also exposed to asbestos have a significantly heightened risk of developing lung cancer when compared to non-smokers.

Compensation is already being recovered on behalf of thousands of patients and families of those exposed to asbestos and diagnosed with lung cancer.

Having a known risk factor, or even several risk factors, does not mean that you will get the disease. And some people who get the disease may not have had any known risk factors.
