Mesothelioma Cancer
Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer affecting the thin membranes surrounding the internal organs of the human body. It most commonly affects the pleura, the lining that surrounds the lungs, but can also occur in the abdominal cavity (Peritoneal Mesothelioma) and around the heart (Pericardial Mesothelioma). It is usually a very aggressive form of cancer, and its essential action is to encase the affected organs as a tumor, cutting them off from the rest of the body.
