What is Mesothelioma? - Courtesy of LawyerShop.com

http://www.personalinjuryfyi.c... - http://www.lawyershop.comMesot... is a rare form of cancer that is caused by asbestos exposure. Mesothelioma is not a form of lung cancer. It actually develops in the mesothelium; a thin, double-layered protective sheath that surrounds vital organs and body cavities. The mesothelium that protects the chest and lungs is called the pleura and the mesothelium that surrounds the abdomen is called the peritoneum. This protective tissue holds vital organs in position and provides lubrication that allows internal organs to smoothly move during breathing and movements.To learn more about Mesothelioma, please visit http://www.personalinjuryfyi.c... of http://www.lawyershop.com
