Welcome to the National-Mesothelioma-Center.Com

Mesothelioma is still a national concern decades after its emergence as an occupational litigation issue.
The National Mesothelioma Center . Com is here to ensure that all those affected by asbestos-related diseases such as mesothelioma can have ready access to the information they need to make informed choices

The inhalation of asbestos fiber has been associated with numerous types of chronic and deadly lung diseases such as the cancer mesothelioma. Asbestos fibers are invisible, tasteless and odorless so people are unknowingly exposed to this deadly mineral.
Tragically, manufacturers and suppliers knew, or should have known, from the medical literature available that their products containing asbestos would result in an epidemic of asbestos-related disease such as mesothelioma decades after the exposure occurred.
Although the cancer malignant mesothelioma is uncommon, it is sadly no longer rare, and is the most serious of all asbestos-related diseases as it is both difficult to diagnose and poorly responsive to therapy.
Fatal lung diseases including mesothelioma have also occurred among family members of workers exposed to asbestos. Families have also been exposed to asbestos when workers were engaged in asbestos removal operations.

We work closely with one of America's most cutting edge mesothelioma treatment centers, The International Mesothelioma Program at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. We will be updating National Mesothelioma Center . Com with the latest news from this and other leading mesothelioma treatment research programs.
The occupational disease section at the law firm of Motley Rice LLC's web site maintains a substantial amount of information on asbestos and mesothelioma by their lawyers as well as information on the history of asbestos industries and products which we will use to inform our articles for you.
