MALIGNANT MESOTHELIOMA PERITONEAL

May 19, 2010 – Malignant mesothelioma of the peritoneal type is a cancer of the lining of the abdominal cavity and is one of three types of mesothelioma, according to the National Cancer Institute.

Malignant mesothelioma peritoneal is fatal in every case, as are the other malignant mesothelioma cancers.

All three mesotheliomas are primarily caused by occupational asbestos exposure.

Occupational asbestos exposure occurs when employers neglect to warn their factory workers about the dangers of working with asbestos; decide not to distribute protective gear (usually to save expenses); or, simply, do not provide a safe working environment as required by law.

Thousands of workers dying of malignant mesothelioma peritoneal have filed successful asbestos claims based on such negligence – and many have obtained multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements with the help of New York’s preeminent asbestos-injury law firm, Weitz & Luxenberg.

Malignant mesothelioma peritoneal

Less common than malignant pleural mesothelioma, peritoneal mesothelioma comprises one-fifth to one-third of the approximately 3,000 mesothelioma cases that are recognized every year in the United States.

Due to a long mesothelioma latency period, workers diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma may not demonstrate symptoms of the cancer for several decades after asbestos exposure. That’s why asbestos diseases like malignant mesothelioma peritoneal are more frequently diagnosed in older and retired workers.
