ESSAY ON: Mesothelioma

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: A 5 page paper discussing this lethal and debilitating form of cancer linked with long-term exposure to asbestos. Asbestos and its safety gained increasing attention throughout the 1960s, and its use was outlawed in 1970. It continued to be used in Britain until 1983, however, and was allowed in restricted environments until 1987. Because the latency period – appearance of disease following exposure – rarely occurs before 25 years and can delay as long as 50 years, the peak of disease in Britain is yet to come. The paper discusses epidemiology, pathogenesis and treatment. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
