Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is a rare cancer affecting the mesothelium, a protective lining around vital organs. Most commonly linked to asbestos exposure, it primarily impacts the lungs, abdomen, and heart. Symptoms include coughing, chest pain, and breathlessness. Early diagnosis of mesothelioma improves prognosis, but treatment often involves surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation.
