Mesothelioma has several types and can attack several parts of the body, among other things:
1. Mesothelioma pleura (the lining of the lung)
This type is the most common of all mesothelioma. Usually caused by the frequent inhaling asbestos dust fibers, which are then trapped in the pleura and cause scarring and inflammation.
2. Mesothelioma peritoneal (lining of the abdominal cavity)
The second most common type is growing in the peritoneum, the tissue that lines the abdomen. Similar to pleural mesothelioma, the cause is dust and asbestos fibers are either inhaled or find its way into the digestive tract to settle and develop in the lining of the abdominal cavity.
3. Pericardial Mesothelioma (the sac that surrounds the heart)
Mesothelioma is ranked as the third most frequently attacks the tissue that lines the heart. The cause is also asbestos, and the cancer develops from abnormal cells that have been developed in the pleura. Somehow the process, but this asbestos dust can break through to the pericardium and develop in the lining of the heart.
4. Mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis (internal lining of the male sex organ) and mesothelioma of the tunica serosa uteri (internal lining of the female sex organs)
Both types of mesothelioma is the most rare. Although uncertain how exactly to asbestos dust can settle and attack the man dna female sex organs, but some cases do show that asbestos dust is the main cause.
