Pleural mesothelioma is the most common type of mesothelioma, a rare cancer that develops in the lungs. It is almost solely caused by exposure to asbestos, which was used in everything in children’s toys, house-hold insulation, and naval carriers before being banned in most parts of the world. Unfortunately it is still widely used in India. The website has up to date and comprehensive information about Pleural Mesothelioma, with information ranging from a complete list of symptoms, to treatment options, and steps to take after a diagnosis.
