Now lets get into more details of mesothelioma cancer. In Mesothelioma the mesothelium cells grows out of control and becomes very cancerous. Mesothelium is a double layered and protective membrane which covers internal organs of the body. The cells produce fluid between these layers in order to provide easy functioning of heart and lungs within the cavity of chest. When mesothelioma cancer cells attack mesothelium it becomes very hard to breath for a human. In the two covered layers for which one layer that covers lungs is known to be as pleura and the other layer which covers the heart is known to be as pericardinium (the "sac-like" space around the heart). The Peritonium layers lines the abodominal cavity. Mesothelioma Cancer can be found in any of the cells but oftenly seen in pleural mesothelioma and peritoneal mesothelioma. Mesothelioma cancer that invades pleural will prevent smooth functioning of lungs and other parts of the chest. Mesothelioma cancer that invades peritoneal will cause weight loss, vomiting and nausea
