What causes the mesothelioma?

Asbestos is the major cause of mesothelioma.

70 to 80 percent of the mesothelioma patients are exposed to asbestos, either in work or in the living environment.

However, in the remaining mesothelioma cases, some patients were not exposed to asbestos in the past.

Hence working with asbestos, like construction, manufacturing of asbestos, other industries where the employees are exposed to asbestos is considered the main cause for mesothelioma.

There is a packet of information available at MesotheliomaHelp.Net that does a good job of explaining the causes and treatments for malignant Mesothelioma. It also includes a medical dictionary, journal and record book to help you keep track of appointments and treatments.
