Asbestos is the only known cause of mesothelioma, a fatal cancer that occurs primarily in the lining of the lungs and the abdomen. Mesothelioma typically occurs at least fifteen years after the first exposure to Asbestos. Asbestos can cause mesothelioma even when the exposure occurs for a short duration. Asbestos fibers are microscopic and exposure can occur without a worker even knowing it. Mesothelioma occurs not only in people working directly with Asbestos products but also in bystanders and family members exposed to Asbestos dust.
