Asbestos Mesothelioma

Asbestos is a fibrous material that was often used for it’s
great insulating properties. When intact, the fibers perform effectively and
provide no danger to humans. However, the fibrous material breaks down
tremendously with age, and when the individual fibers are inhaled into the
lungs, asbestosis may occur in exposed individuals. Asbestosis is a condition
where the lungs develop scar tissue.

This scarring can and in most cases does result in the
onset of Asbestos Mesothelioma. One of the most dangerous cancers known to the
medical community, this condition has been the reason for controversy
surrounding the use of asbestos at all. Generally, buildings with asbestos
require complete removal and quarantine of all materials until inspections are
performed.
