Mesothelioma Prognosis

In its early stages, it is possible to remove the mesothelioma tumor using surgery followed by chemotherapy, giving patients the highest chance of a full recovery. New treatments such as photodynamic therapy, in which drugs are carried to the tumor site and then activated by light, are gaining ground, but a cure-all for this type of cancer does not yet exist.

One of the most crucial aspects in the fight against mesothelioma is the fact that it is extremely hard to detect in early stages when the tumors are small and the only symptoms presented mimic other common diseases. Unless told about a potential asbestos exposure, doctors will often overlook mesothelioma as an option until the disease is in its later stages. In part, this is because of the long incubation period which is often 20-50 years long.

The Culpability of Companies Using Asbestos

The rates of mesothelioma in the Unites States are expected to keep rising until at least 2020. More and more lawsuits are emerging now as workers and military personnel contract mesothelioma and rightfully seek compensation. Some companies have set up trust funds that will pay out to anyone exposed to their asbestos product who has developed mesothelioma thus removing the need for court proceedings. In many cases, however, a company will deny any wrongdoing, and a patient will have to seek out the services of a law firm in order to obtain fair compensation for their suffering and to pay for the cost of their treatments.
