Mesothelioma is primarily caused by exposure to asbestos, though
cases have been documented in children or other individuals with no
asbestos history. Asbestos is a microscopic and naturally-occurring
mineral that lodges in the pleural lining of the lungs and the
peritoneal lining of the abdominal cavity. In most cases, several years
will pass (up to 60) before mesothelioma develops in those who have been
exposed to asbestos.
In many cases, those individuals diagnosed with mesothelioma that have been known to be exposed to asbestos may be eligible for financial compensation from asbestos manufacturers for their illness. Medical treatment costs can be significant with a mesothelioma diagnosis. However, financial assistance is available to help offset those costs for those diagnosed with mesothelioma that were exposed to asbestos.
