UNDERSTANDING MESOTHELIOMAAS WELL AS THE SYMPTOMS AND TYPES
Mesothelioma is one of the
diseases of the lung cancer which is very rare, but the most dangerous and
deadly. The main cause of cancer that attacks the cells of the lungs called
mesothelium this is exposure to asbestos dust. This can be prevented by means
of suppressing the spread of dust surroundings the workplace. Prevention is the
most effective for the occurrence of mesotelioma on workers. The following is
an explanation about the understanding of the causes of Mesothelioma,
Mesothelioma, Mesothelioma symptoms as well as the distribution and types of
Mesothelioma.
Mesothelioma Definition
Mesothelioma is a malignant
cancer diseases rarely occur and usually suffered by certain people. This
cancer develops in the cells of meshothelium, while meshothelium it is a
membrane that forms the lining of several body cavities for example just like
chest cavity, abdominal cavity, SAC of the heart. Malignant disease is commonly
found in the people or workers who often inhaling substances contained in
asbestos.
Causes Of Mesothelioma
- The main thing is the asbestos when inhaled substance or ashes were even ingested can cause cancer.
- The neighborhood places which contained high level substances erionite mineral zeolite or a substance very similar to asbestos fibers.
- Mesothelioma can be caused by asbestos in the building.
Symptoms Of Mesothelioma :
- Chest pain feels once
- Shortness Of Breath
- Anemia occurs or a deficiency of red blood cells
- Often feel exhausted
- The sound became very hoarse and coughing
- In fact there are also experiencing cough phlegm so but there is blood in it
The Spread Of Mesothelioma
- Mesothelioma lymph nodes have not been in a State of developing. In addition any kankernya yet in a State that is very severe and not spread on the organ-orann and other body tissues.
- When Mesothelioma is at the second stage, the size is enlarged and attack the lungs. Even the lymph beningpun could join exposed too. When meothelioma are on phase 2 stage the patient could still do oprasi. Although the possibility of kankernya already spread both sides of the pleura.
- At this stage means the kankernya was already badly enough and already can not do oprasi or surgery on the patient. Damage will occur at the regional lymph nodes, esophagus and chest wall.
- This is the stage in the final part in terms of cancer already attacked in some other areas. Oprasi already there will be no point to it again when you have reached the final stage. Because cancer isn't just spread on the chest area but has also spread across parts of the far away from the place of origin of the cancer was growing.
Types Of Mesothelioma
- Pleural mesothelioma (lung membranes), this type is the most common of all mesothelioma. Usually caused by dust inhalation of asbestos fibers often, which is then trapped in the pleura and cause scarring and inflammation.
- Peritoneal mesothelioma (abdominal cavity membranes). The most common type of latter flourished in the peritoneum, namely the tissues that line the stomach. As with pleural mesothelioma, the cause is dust and asbestos fibers that either ingested or find their way into the digestive tract so that it settles and develop in the abdominal cavity membranes.
- Pericardial mesothelioma (SAC surrounding the heart). Mesothelioma was ranked the third most frequently attacking the tissues that line the heart. Asbestos also causes cancer, and it evolved from abnormal cells that are already growing on the pleura. Somehow the process of asbestos dust, but it could break through into the pericardium and the heart develops in the membrane.
