Epithelial mesothelioma

Epithelial mesothelioma cells have a clear structure and specific nuclei are visible. This is the most common alternative to this type of cancer, mesothelioma, which represents about 60 percent of all cases pathological.
This type of mesothelioma development of malignant cells when placed on any of the epithelial lining. When examined under a microscope and these types of mesothelioma cells are of uniform size and shape similar to normal healthy epithelial cells.
Mesothelioma cells with epithelial cells is also a strong resemblance to adenocarcinoma, which is also associated with lung tissue. It should also be patients who have been diagnosed with adenocarcinoma studied for the diagnosis of mesothelioma.
Epithelial mesothelioma occurs most often in adults and usually float on the surface between the ages of 50 and 70 years with 70-80% of cases in men. In more than 90% of cases, directly related to the occurrence of mesothelioma to a history of exposure to asbestos

Sarcomatoid Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is a cancer that attacks the lubricative layer lining the inside of the chest and abdomen and internal organs.
The presence of cells of sarcomatoid mesothelioma have an impact on patient diagnosis and treatment. And patients who are diagnosed with sarcomatoid mesothelioma diagnosis is the poorest and most experience little response to treatment. And evaluating the characteristics of sarcomatoid mesothelioma, learn how the disease is diagnosed, and knows how to deal with this kind of doctors better prepare you to diagnose and fight this type of cancer.

Sarcomatoid tumor accounts for about 10 to 15 percent of all diagnoses. And types of mesothelioma cells in this case are rectangular and arranged in a haphazard way to some extent. Sarcoma cells also lack a nucleus, in contrast to epithelioid cells, which have a nucleus and a clearly visible.

Biphasic Mesothelioma


Known as malignant mesothelioma biphasic is the second type of cells, the most common form of mesothelioma. And patients who suffer from this type vary rates of life expectancy at birth, because the diagnosis depends on the proportion of epithelial cells and sarcoma. Learn about mesothelioma biphasic and understand their characteristics, and how the disease is diagnosed, and how it affects the treatment of this type can help you make informed decisions with your doctor. 

papillary Mesothelioma


 Papillary Mesothelioma is a rare form of very mesothelioma. And can occur in the heart, lungs, stomach or abdomen, such as other forms of mesothelioma other, have been linked to some cases of papillary mesothelioma with exposure to asbestos, while others did not prove it.
Often are diagnosed with papillary mesothelioma, also known as mesothelioma papillary quite different, in women in general, and who are still in the early stages of reproduction in particular. Men also have been diagnosed with more than 100 cases with papillary mesothelioma in the region pleura or the lining of the lungs.

Malignant Mesothelioma

Malignant mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that affects the mesothelium (the lining surrounding the internal organs and structures) asbestos is basically Responsible for the development of mesothelioma, there are three types of malignant mesothelioma are as follows:
Malignant pleural mesothelioma, which occurs in the lining of the lung and pleura.Malignant pericardial mesothelioma occurs in the bag surrounding the heart, known as the (Prcardiom).
Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma, which occurs in the abdominal cavity and peritoneum, and this is the most common type of tumors.

Benign Mesothelioma

Benign tumor does not invade nearby tissue sound this is the difference between malignant mesothelioma while the malignant cancer cells travel to other parts of the body through the bloodstream. It is not a form of cancer. Adenoma sometimes grow to be very large and affect negatively the other organs of the body to cause some problems that we do not need.
Allowed to appear on the surface in much sooner and is often an indication that the individual must be watched carefully for signs of further asbestos-related diseases and the consequences in the future.

Symptoms of benign tumor 
Very similar symptoms of malignant mesothelioma with symptoms of benign mesothelioma symptoms are often

pleural mesothelioma


 pleural mesothelioma is a rare cancer but does not cause death in most cases. Disease that affects the pleura pleural mesothelioma is the external lining of the lungs and internal chest wall. Can also arise in the peritoneum or membrane lining the abdominal cavity. Pleural mesothelioma disease sometimes take more than 20 years to show symptoms of the disease on the person.
Cause disease in pleural mesothelioma and reduced lung function and can spread to the outside wall of the chest and abdomen, including the heart. And shortness of breath, cough, anemia and weight loss
Unfortunately, there is no cure for pleural mesothelioma, but if the disease is detected early, it may be useful in the treatment stages, such as the eradication of cancer next to the traditional methods of treatment using radiotherapy or treatment Alkamiaúy, leading to ease the pain of the disease and make the patient more comfortable.

Peritoneal Mesothelioma

Happens peritoneal mesothelioma in abdominal cavity and identification in cell walls surrounding the cavity kind abdomen. A rare type of cancer and incidence Tkzn very rare where a nearly 20% of the total patients with mesothelioma and affects about 500 people each year in the United States.
Mesothelioma is notorious for having a long latency period is growing silently, but does not affect the health and employment. In fact, in most cases, symptoms go decades before it became clear and this unfortunately means that the disease in an advanced stage before symptoms begin to appear. In many cases, this delay in diagnosis adversely affect the diagnosis of the patient.
Causes of peritoneal mesothelioma
Asbestos is the major cause of peritoneal mesothelioma. This occurs for either by swallowing
Asbestos fibers that settle in the peritoneal membrane, or by inhalation, which causes zihaar

Pericardial Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma Pericardial malignant is a rare type of cancer as it does not represent only 6% of all mesothelioma cases. According to studies and research, the number of patients with pericardial mesothelioma does not exceed 200 people across the world.
Pericardial mesothelioma affects the membrane surrounding the heart. This membrane is composed of two layers an inner layer known as the deep layer or epicardium. And an outer layer called the heart sac or mural.
Causes of pericardial mesothelioma.
As we all know that asbestos is the main cause of mesothelioma. Research and studies did not demonstrate a relationship between the disease and asbestos, but some cases of pericardial mesothelioma have a history of exposure to asbestos fibers.
Some doctors believe that the injury pleural mesothelioma first cause pericardial mesothelioma after inhaling asbestos fibers into the lungs and then into the bloodstream and from the lining of the heart.
