Pleural Mesothelioma / Peritoneal Mesothelioma
The
most common place for mesothelioma to develop is in the mesothelial membrane,
also called the pleural lining, surrounding the lungs. About two-thirds of
all mesothelioma cases develop in the pleural mesothelium or lung lining.
Pleural mesothelioma is also known as cancer of the lung lining.
The
remaining cases, about one-third, develop in the peritoneal mesothelium in
the abdomen (peritoneal mesothelioma). Rarely, mesothelioma occurs in other
mesothelial tissue, such as around the heart or in the reproductive organs
(pericardial mesothelioma).
