چکیده
The pathetic malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a extremely uncommon and confrontational tumor that evolves in the mesothelium layer of pleural cavities (inner lining- visceral pleura outer parietal pleura), peritoneum, pericardium, tunica vaginalis highly resistant to standard treatments. In mesothelioma, predominant pattern lesions loss genes limit tumour growth. Despite worldwide ban on manufacture supply asbestos, prevalence continues increase. Mesothelioma presents behaves variety ways, making diagnosis challenging. Most treatments available today for MM are ineffective, median life expectancy between 10 12 months. However, recent years, considerable progress has already been made understanding genetics molecular pathophysiology by addressing hippo signaling pathway. development progression related many important genetic alterations. This NF2 and/or LATS2 mutations activate transcriptional coactivator YAP. X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, PET scans used diagnose MM. treated with surgery, chemotherapy, first-line combination second-line treatment, radiation therapy, adoptive T-cell targeted cancer vaccines. Recent clinical trials investigating function surgery have led innovative approaches treatment associated effusions as well introduction medications. An interdisciplinary collaborative approach needed effective care persons who because rising intricacy treatment. article highlights key findings pathogenesis special emphasis management mesothelioma.

Molecular Pathogenesis of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
Malignant mesothelioma is a rare, highly aggressive cancer which arises from the mesothelial cells which form the lining of the pleural, and less frequently the peritoneal cavities. Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an emergent neoplasm, as it was rarely diagnosed prior to the middle of the 20th century. The incidence has risen steadily since 1970, and there are currently an estimated 300...
متن کاملThe epidemiology and pathogenesis of malignant mesothelioma.
M alignant mesotheliomas of the pleural and peritoneal cavity have long been recognized as tumors unique in man. They were first described before the turn of the century although their causation at that time was totally obscure. Now, we are aware that a substantial proportion of the mesotheliomas occurring in the Western world result from exposure to amphibole asbestos. In this brief survey, I ...
متن کاملAnti-angiogenic therapies for malignant pleural mesothelioma.
INTRODUCTION Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a disease with a dismal prognosis. Currently available treatments have modest results. Therefore, new agents and new treatment strategies are eagerly awaited by patients and clinicians. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown that angiogenesis plays a very important role in MPM. Therefore, a great hope has been placed in the use of anti-a...
متن کاملCurrent Concepts in the Diagnosis and Management of Patients With Malignant Peritoneal Mesothelioma
Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a malignancy that arises from the mesothelial lining of the abdominal cavity and largely manifests as a diffuse process. There are two hallmark features of MPM. First, MPM may progress and present itself diversely among patients. While some patients may endure a quick tumor progression that is refractory to seemingly successful initial therapeutic cyto...
متن کاملPRIMARY MALIGNANT PERICARDIAL MESOTHELIOMA
Primary malignant neoplasms of the pericardium are rare and are predominantly mesotheliomas, followed by benign localized fibrous mesothelioma, malignant fibrosarcoma, angiosarcoma and benign and malignant teratomas. 1 This article concerns an atypical presentation of this malignant tumor with symptoms and signs of pericardial effusion. This unusual feature was complete encasement of the h...
