Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer that develops from the thin layer of tissue covering many internal organs (mesothelium), most commonly affecting the lining of the lungs (pleural mesothelioma) and almost exclusively caused by asbestos exposure.
Approximately 2,500-3,000 new cases annually in the USA; incidence varies globally based on historical asbestos use (Globocan 2020, WHO)
