peritoneal mesothelioma
Thursday, October 16th, 2008
Has anyone been diagnosed or have any experience with cystic mesothelioma in the peritoneal cavity?
I was diagnosed 2 years ago, I have that it is a very rare cancer. I had surgery and heated peritonectomy intra peritoneal chemotherapy and hope to see how many others are there out.
Cystic mesothelioma of peritenum used to be considered benign, but I think it is now classified as a low grade tumor? There are several types. . and some are more aggressive than others. You may be able to find more support from groups like ACOR has a mailing list for patients with mesothelioma. . This is a support group for any person with mesothelioma, so you can find someone with the subtype. . in both cases are real patients with the disease and may be able to point to other groups or share information with you: ACOR: mesothelioma (cancer) and support http://listserv.acor.org/archives/mesothelioma.html Information
