Pericardial Mesothelioma FAQ
What is pericardial mesothelioma?
Pericardial Mesothelioma is a rare form of mesothelioma cancer
that accounts for approximately 5% of all mesothelioma cases.
Cancerous cells build up on the lining of the heart.
What is the cause of pericardial mesothelioma?
Asbestos is the main cause of pericardial mesothelioma. When
exposed to asbestos without sufficient protection, dust and
fibres from the asbestos are inhaled and become lodged in the
lungs. From here they can either pass into the lymphatic system
and get transported to the lining of the heart or the fibres can
just pass through to the heart over time.
Who is at risk from pericardial mesothelioma?
Those who have worked with asbestos constantly for a period of
time without sufficient protection are those at risk. These
people include construction workers and those who work in
asbestos manufacturing plants. Individuals in contact with those
in contact with asbestos are also at risk because asbestos
fibres can cling to clothes and hair.
How much exposure to asbestos does it take to have a possibility
of getting pericardial mesothelioma?
This varies depending on the concentration of the asbestos dust
and fibres in the area but it has been recorded that those who
have only been exposed for a couple of months have a chance of
obtaining pericardial mesothelioma.
What are the symptoms of pericardial mesothelioma?
Common symptoms of pericardial mesothelioma are persistent
coughing, coughing up blood,
shortness of breath, chest pain and
palpitations. Other symptoms that patients may experience are
weight loss, nausea and loss of appetite.
What is the latency period of pericardial mesothelioma?
All forms of mesothelioma have an extraordinarily long latency
period (amount of time symptoms take to show up after having
disease). The latency period is between 30 - 50 years and so
pericardial mesothelioma is usually discovered in elderly men
who have had pericardial mesothelioma for most of their life but
have never known it.
What is the prognosis for pericardial mesothelioma?
This is highly dependent on how early and how aggressively the
cancerous cells are treated. If the cancer is treated when it
has fully developed and matured then the chances of a patient's
survival is very small. The prognosis could be only a couple of
months.
Is there any promising research for pericardial mesothelioma?
At the moment, research into pericardial mesothelioma is being
conducted all over the USA in research labs and also many
pharmaceutical companies are endeavouring to find new drugs for
chemotherapy. So far, there is still no cure for mesothelioma
although researchers predict that new drugs will soon be
discovered.
