A non-cancerous benign mesothelioma occurs in the pleura, which is the lining of the lungs and chest cavity. Benin Mesothelioma is very rare that infection with mesothelioma is dormant for a long period of time before the first sign appears. Excessive exposure to asbestos particles is responsible for this type of cancer. The asbestos particles accumulate in the mesothelium causing extreme pain. Although non-malignant tumor is located on site, it can compress the lung, if allowed to grow larger. Shortness of breath is the result of that.
However, mesothelioma is a benign disease cured. Surgery is very effective if growth is only local. The only possible complication during surgery is that sometimes the leakage of fluid in the pleural cavity around the lung, which is medically known as pleural effusion. But as the fluid can be drained easily, this also does not pose a direct threat to life. Investigate the non-cancerous growth lets you know if the patient has had any exposure to asbestos and thereby prevent the onset of life-threatening as the types of pleural mesothelioma, peritoneal and pericardial.
