Mesothelioma is a sleeper disease that affects individuals some 20 to 30years after their first exposure to asbestos. When exposed to asbestos, its fine particles find its way into the lungs where it becomes logged within its cell structure.

The subsequent interaction with the asbestos particles sets off a chain reaction of chemical processes that end up in malignant transformation and cancerous cells.
