Lung mesothelioma or the pleural mesothelioma is one of the three very perilous cancers affecting the mesothelium, a protective covering found around vital organs like lungs, abdomen and heart. The three types are the pleural, which affects the lung cavities, the pericardial that inhabit in the heart cavities and peritoneal which attack the abdominal cavities. The cancer is comparatively rare and only those people who were in contact with asbestos for a protracted period are normally the victims of it.
