Mesothelioma is a cancer that affects the tissue lining the lungs, heart, stomach, and other organs. Although it is relatively uncommon, mesothelioma poses a significant health concern due to its aggressive nature and high fatality rate. This book comprises five chapters that provide comprehensive information on the treatment, prognosis, and risk factors associated with mesothelioma.
Chapter One delves into the emerging immunotherapy combinations as promising treatments for malignant pleural mesothelioma. It explores the biological mechanisms behind these combinations and discusses the challenges involved in their clinical development.
Chapter Two provides a comprehensive overview of mesothelioma, including its history, diagnosis, and treatment. It highlights the role of asbestos exposure and other factors in the development of the disease.
Chapter Three examines the significance of inflammatory and immunological markers as prognostic indicators in malignant pleural mesothelioma. It explores the surgical effects on the immune response against cancer and discusses the role of these markers in predicting patient outcomes.
Chapter Four explores the various cancer markers used for diagnosing mesothelioma and highlights the recent advancements in the field. It discusses the importance of accurate diagnosis and the role of imaging techniques in detecting mesothelioma.
Chapter Five examines the various surgical options available for removing pleural tumors. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each procedure, including minimally invasive techniques such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and open surgery.
By providing detailed information on mesothelioma treatment, prognosis, and risk factors, this book aims to assist healthcare professionals, patients, and their families in understanding and managing this complex disease.
