The mesothelioma is a very rare type of cancer which develops in the external membrane of some internal bodies of the human body, it can develop in the external membrane of the lungs that known like pl�vre, can develop in the external membrane of the internal bodies in the abdominal cavity and can develop in the external membrane of the heart which known like pericardium.

The pleural mesothelioma or the cancer of the lining of lung is the most common type of cancer of mesothelioma and often is associated with the asbestos exposure. Asbestos are several ores which was employed with the manufacturing companies, workmen who was in the asbestos environment is the majority of the people who can develop the mesothelioma due to the direct contact with the asbestos particles, by asbestos fibres of inhalation can present the cavity and the bench to file of trunk in the pl�vre (the lining of lung) and cause the chronic ignition which can cause the malignant tumours after several years.

The pericardial mesothelioma is less common than the pleural and related mesothelioma to the asbestos exposure, in this type the asbestos particles arrange in the pericardium (the lining of heart). The scientists put 't know asbestos can obtain in the pericardium, there is a manner of imagination whose asbestos particles are transferred starting from the pl�vre to the vapor from blood then in the middle, the heart the pump with the pericardium and the beginning of the disease to develop there.

The mesothelioma p�riton�al is another type of mesothelioma and affects the peritoneum. The peritoneum is the external membrane of the internal bodies in the abdominal cavity. The mesothelioma p�riton�al is often related to the asbestos exposure.

The symptoms of mesothelioma can be brevity of breath, cough, pain of trunk and general weakness. The diagnosis of mesothelioma is very difficult, because its symptoms are very similar to other kinds of diseases take time very long to appear 25-50 years. The options of the treatments are confined with the surgery, chemotherapy (special chemicals to kill the cancer cells) and with the radiotherapy (using a certain kind of radiations with d�barasser of the cancer cells).
