I recently found this useful article published on a news website. According to the article when this disease occurs the body organs start to get infected and tumor begins to develop.it basically happens due to Asbestos exposure. Moreover if the patient is a heavy smoker then things get worse. So be very careful of these two factors.

It is a rare form of lung cancer generally caused by asbestos exposure.
If you watch TV you will see many law firms advertising for epithelium cases because they were most likely exposed to asbestos at work.

Benzene which causes leukemia is also a source of many lawsuits.
Tobacco exposure does not generally cause epithelium but can lead to lung cancer.

Whatever you do stay away from Asbestos and Benzene.

1. Asbestos and other chronic irritant Exposure.
2. Primary Treatment - Surgery either upfront or after chemotherapy
3. If Surgery is impossible, Radiation therapy is an alternative

Benign epithelium is a noncancerous tumor of the lining of the lung and chest cavity, an area called the pleura.
Malignant epithelium is an uncommon cancerous tumor of the lining of the lung and chest cavity (pleura) or lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) that is typically due to long-term asbestos exposure.
Malignant epithelium affects men more often than women. The average age at diagnosis is 60.
Malignant epithelium is a difficult cancer to treat.
There is usually no cure, unless the disease is found extremely early and the tumor can be completely removed with surgery. However, most of the time at diagnosis, the disease is too advanced for surgery. Chemotherapy or radiation may be used to reduce symptoms. Combining certain chemotherapy drugs may help decrease symptoms, but it will not cure the cancer.

Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer type with no cure yet. This cancer it not all person happen it is only rare case happen. The leading cause of this disease is exposure to asbestos. which is naturally occuring silicate. If you take a tobacco then it also happen.
