In this disease, malignant cells develop in the mesotelium, a protective lining that covers most of the bodys internal organs.Pleuramesotheliom Patiënthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02027334466652761602noreply@blogger.comBlogger11100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7917807773549067487.post-63519817726341198942007-11-15T08:40:00.000-08:002007-11-15T09:14:13.056-08:00Symptoms of mesotelioma may not appear until 20 to 50 years after exposure to asbestos. Shortness of breath, cough, and pain in the chest due to an accumulation of fluid in the pleural space are often symptoms of pleural mesotelioma.<br /><div style="display:none">mesothuelioma, mesothel8ioma, mesotheliomqa, mersotherlioma, misothilioma, mesothelloma, kmesotheliokma, meso6helioma, mesaothelioma, mesxothelioma, mesorthelioma, mesotheliomw, mesotheplioma</div><br />Symptoms of peritoneal mesotelioma include weight loss and cachexia, abdominal swelling and pain due to ascites (a buildup of fluid in the abdominal cavity). Other symptoms of peritoneal mesotelioma may include bowel obstruction, blood clotting abnormalities, anemia, and fever. If the cancer has spread beyond the mesothelium to other parts of the body, symptoms may include pain, trouble swallowing, or swelling of the neck or face.<br /><div style="display:none">mwesothwelioma, mesotghelioma, mesothelikoma, mesatheliama, meso0thelio0ma, mezsothelioma, mesothe,lioma, mesotheliioma, mesotheliomas, mesoktheliokma, mesotnelioma, mesotjelioma, mesothel.ioma</div><br />These symptoms may be caused by mesotelioma or by other, less serious conditions.<br /><div style="display:none">mescothelioma, mesofhelioma, measothelioma, mespthelipma, mesothelioms, mesootheliooma, mesothhelioma, mesotuhelioma, meskothelikoma, mesothelijoma, mesotheliomaq, nmesothelionma, mesot5helioma</div><br />Mesotelioma that affects the pleura can cause these signs and symptoms:<br /><div style="display:none">mesoltheliolma, meso5thelioma, nesotheliona, mesotheolioma, mesohelioma, mesoghelioma, mrsothrlioma, methothelioma, mes9theli9ma, mesotheioma, mesothtelioma, m4esoth4elioma, mesotyhelioma</div><br /> * chest wall pain<br /> * pleural effusion, or fluid surrounding the lung<br /> * shortness of breath<br /> * fatigue or anemia<br /> * wheezing, hoarseness, or cough<br /> * blood in the sputum (fluid) coughed up<br /><div style="display:none">mesotheliioma, mesdothelioma, mesothelpioma, mesotheliom, mesogthelioma, mesotfhelioma, mesothelkoma, m3esoth3elioma, mesothe.ioma, mesotuelioma, mesothel,ioma, medsothelioma, mesothjelioma</div><br />In severe cases, the person may have many tumor masses.
