TYPES OF MESOTHELIOMA

TYPES OF MESOTHELIOMA TUMOR

There are mainly  three type of mesothelioma tumor 

1.  mesothelioma pleura

2.  mesothelioma peritoneal 

3.  mesothelioma pericardial  

1. MESOTHELIOMA PLEURA

 

Mesothelioma pleura  is also known as pleural  mesothelioma cancer. this is the very common type of cancer which is placed in the lungs . pleural means lungs. the chances of the mesothelioma pleura are increase when the people who have been exposed large amount of asbestos.As the earlier post i discussed about the mesothelial  cells (MESOTHELIAL). the lining of the mesothelial cells is  covered by the mesothelioma tumor. due to this reason the mesothelial cells  does not  assist the organs of the body at pleural so that the expansion and contraction of the lungs become more difficult which results to decrease in the breathing power of  lungs.
                                                              While it is very difficult to treat the mesothelioma pleura . but there is a way through which doctors can conrol the mesothelioma pleura by some traditional treatment methods. These methods can ease symptoms of the disease and make a patient more comfortable. 

PLEURAL MESOTHELIOMA  SYMPTOMS  

1. the breathing power of patient become less.

2. it is very difficult to swallowing.

3.chest pain 

4. persistent  dry cough

MESOTHELIOMA PERITONEAL

Mesothelioma peritoneal is the  one of  other   four type of  malignant mesothelioma. the other name of the peritoneal is peritoneum membrane. mesothelioma peritoneal is the cancer  which is relative to the lining of the  abdomen. As we know that  our abdomen is protected by the peritoneum  membrane. peritoneum membrane surrounds whole abdomen.  there are two layers and mesothelioma peritoneal can develop on both the layers. one layer protects the abdomen cavity which is known as parietal layer and other one is protects the stomach, liver  and other organs of the abdomen  which is known as visceral layer. mesothelioma peritoneal can affect both the layers which can produce cancerous cells and then tumor.

CAUSES OF MESOTHELIOMA  PERITONEAL 

There are two  basic reason of the  Mesothelioma peritoneal 

1.  exposure to asbestos results the inhaling of  micro fibers  from the mouth stream  to the peritoneum membrane.

2. inhaled asbestos fibers reach peritoneum membrane through the lymphatic system
