Content Summary :
Asbestos fibers can also damage cells of the lung and result in asbestosis (formation of scartissue in the lung), and/or lung cancer. The risk of lung cancer among people exposed to asbestosis increased by 7 times, compared with the general population. Indeed, asbestosis, mesothelioma,and lung cancer are the 3 most frequent causes of death and disease among people with heavy asbestos exposure. Peritoneal mesothelioma, which forms in the abdomen, may result fromcoughing up and swallowing inhaled asbestos fibers. Cancers of the larynx, pancreas, esophagus,colon, and kidney have also been linked to asbestos exposure, but the increased risk is not asgreat as for lung cancer. The risk of developing a mesothelioma is related to how much asbestos a person was exposed toand how long this exposure lasted. People exposed at an early age, for a long period of time, andat higher levels are most likely to develop this cancer. Mesotheliomas take a long time todevelop. The time between exposure to asbestos and diagnosis of mesothelioma is usuallybetween 20 and 40 years.
