Types of MesotheliomaMesothelioma a life-threatening cancer that attacks the lining of your abdomen and the lining that surrounds each of your internal organs. Caused by exposure to asbestos, the disease takes several forms:
The most common type of this disease is pleural mesothelioma. The resulting tumor has a severe impact on your ability to breathe, and it can spread to organs around the lungs, causing additional complications. Peritoneal mesothelioma is less common but more aggressive. Its tumor spreads to other internal organs, including the pancreas and stomach. Because of its ability to affect so many other parts of your body, life expectancy is short. Pericardial mesothelioma is the type that is most rare. It occurs when fluid accumulates inside the sac that surrounds the heart. The excessive liquid disrupts the heart's rhythm, causing chest pain and breathing disorders. Nearly 2,000 cases of mesothelioma are diagnosed each year in America. If you have worked in an asbestos-rich environment or used asbestos materials, you should contact a mesothelioma physician to arrange for diagnosis and treatment options. To explore the possibility of compensation for your exposure to asbestos and your resulting physical suffering, contact the law office of Michael Fleming. We will be happy to meet with you in your home, evaluate your case and advise you of your legal options. Michael P.
