First off, you should understand how mesothelioma attacks the body. The main cause of mesothelioma cancer is certain materials called "Asbestos", these materials have very dangerous effects on the body. Asbestos were used in the past in many manufacturing company.

The mesothelioma cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers discovered till now, it can attack some places in the body like the pleura, the abdomen and the pericardium. According to the affected area, mesothelioma cancer can be classified to three types, the pericardial mesothelioma that attack the pericardium area, the pleural mesothelioma that attack the pleura area and the peritoneal mesothelioma that attack the pericardium area.

The main problems with diagnosis process is the very long time for symptoms to appear, they takes about 45 years to appear. After they appear, they will be very similar to other disease that make the diagnosis process more harder.

The main cause of mesothelioma cancer was discovered, they are the asbestos, the asbestos materials are material that was used in the past in some manufacturing fields such as the cement and textile manufacturing fields. Asbestos are the main cause of mesothelioma cancer.

The main types of treatment should be, the surgery method, the chemotherapy method and the radiation method. The surgery method in which the doctor can remove the affected area with the tumors. The chemotherapy option in which the doctor give the mesothelioma patient some powerful chemical drugs that can kill the cancer cells instantly. The radiotherapy is also another treatment option for mesothelioma that can be combined with the other two options.
