What is Mesothelioma?
The mesothelium is the protective lining that covers various organs in the body. Mesothelioma that is malignant is typically found in the lungs and abdomen. However, it can also form in the lining of the heart (pericardium) or in the testes. Around 3,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with mesothelioma each year. The only cause that is known for this rare cancer is exposure to asbestos. Asbestos is a fibrous substance that was once popular in American industries due to its affordable and fire-proof. It was used to construct structures, homes, ships, airplanes and automobiles. People who worked on these projects could have been exposed to asbestos as workers cut or removed the materials.

The doctor might also request an examination to confirm the mesothelioma diagnosis and to determine what type of mesothelioma a patient has. The biopsy may be an exploratory procedure or a minimally-invasive procedure.
During the biopsy procedure, doctors will remove small samples of mesothelium tissue and look for mesothelioma cells. The mesothelioma cell can be epithelioid or biphasic or sarcomatoid with the first two types accounting for the majority of diagnoses. The sarcomatoid form is less responsive to treatment and has a shorter lifespan. The epithelioid type is more responsive to treatment and has a higher chance of survival.
