Mesothelioma is a form of cancer which occurs in thin membranes (called the mesothelium) lining the chest, lungs, abdomen and sometimes the heart. Although quite rare, mesothelioma symptoms strike more than 200 people each year in the United States. The majority of mesothelioma cases are directly linked to asbestos exposure.
Because of the long latency period of mesothelioma, the average age of patients is between 50 and 70 years. Mesothelioma affects men most due to the high exposure of asbestos in industrial typed jobs. Mesothelioma symptoms include respiratory problems, shortness of breath, continual cough and pneumonia. Other mesothelioma symptoms include weight loss, abdominal problems and swelling. In some mesothelioma patients, the mesothelioma symptoms are quite muted, making it hard for mesothelioma doctors to diagnose.
Mesothelioma doctors specialize in the study, research, and treatments of Mesothelioma cancers.
Mesothelioma (or the cancer of the mesothelium) is a disease in which cells become abnormal and replicate without control. During Mesothelioma, these cells will invade and damage tissues and organs. Mesothelioma cancer cells can spread throughout the body causing death.
Mesothelioma treatments and Mesothelioma clinical trials and tests
There are many mesothelioma treatment options available. Treatments include surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy and the mesothelioma treatment depends on the patient’s age, general health and stage of the cancer. There has been much mesothelioma research conducted throughout the past two years to find new treatment methods. Click here to read more about mesothelioma treatment techniques.
Through mesothelioma research, The National Cancer Institute has sponsored mesothelioma tests and clinical trials that are designed to find new treatment methods. Because of the increase in number of mesothelioma cases in the United States, both governments have increased funding for mesothelioma research. Mesothelioma research and clinical trials have been successful in developing new techniques to fight this cancer and the outlook for more advanced mesothelioma treatments is promising.
Surgery is the most common treatment method for malignant mesothelioma. Tissues and linings affected by mesothelioma are removed by the doctor and may include the lung or even diaphragm.
A second mesothelioma treatment method is radiation therapy through the use of high energy x-rays that kill the cancer cells. Radiation therapy can be outside or inside the body.
A third mesothelioma treatment method is chemotherapy. Through pills or drugs through needles, chemotherapy drugs are used to kill cancer cells.
A new mesothelioma treatment method is called intraoperative photodynamic therapy. In this treatment, light and drugs are used to kill cancer cells during surgery for early stages of mesothelioma in the chest. Although there are numerous treatments and drugs for mesothelioma, doctors are losing the battle against this deadly disease. Most mesothelioma treatments involve old techniques combined with different drug cocktails. However, in most cases, these mesothelioma treatments have many side effects including organ damage, nausea, increase in heart failure etc. The rush to find a more effective mesothelioma treatment or even cure is ongoing at numerous clinical labs across the nation. Let's hope that the mesothelioma treatments will one day erradicate mesothelioma cancer and asbestosis.

In many cases, the death rate of mesothelioma is unfortunately very high. However, with increased funding in mesothelioma research through the government and private grants, the outlook for a mesothelioma cure is quite possible.

Seorang
relawan berbaju hazmat putih berdiri membelakangi kamera. Seolah
terpaku menatap pemandangan di depannya. Ada relawan lain mengenakan
alat pelindung diri (APD) tak kalah lengkap berdiri dengan tangan
bersedekap. Menghadap sebuah peti mungil putih di atasnya. Setiap tepian
kotak ditempel erat dengan lakban cokelat.
Dan sebait kalimat disertakan dengan sebingkai foto bidikan Tim Infokom
Satgas COVID-19 PMI Bantul, Hafidz Tama yang diunggah pemilik akun
@Lekday, lewat tengah malam 18 Mei 2020.
“Pemakaman terberat adalah ketika memakamkan sebuah peti kecil,”
demikian bunyi status yang diunggahnya. Menyiratkan ada sosok mungil
terbaring di dalam peti kecil itu.
“Iya, jenazah bayi usia 10 hari,” kata Wisnu T. Wardhana mengomentari
foto yang diunggah temannya saat dikonfirmasi , Senin (18/5) petang.
Wisnu adalah salah satu relawan Tim Penanganan Jenazah Gugus Tugas
COVID-19 Bantul dari Palang Merah Indonesia (PMI) Bantul. Saat pemakaman
bayi itu, Wisnu bertugas sebagai safety officerdalam Regu 2 tim penanganan jenazah yang tengah piket.
Ia pun berpesan kepada publik untuk menjaga diri dengan mematuhi aturan.
Serta bersabar untuk bersama-sama memutus rantai penularan virus
corona.
“Jangan paksa kami menguburkan peti-peti kecil lainnya,” kata Wisnu menegaskan
1. Tim tak mengira akan mengubur
jenazah bayi berusia 10 hariWisnu dan lima orang temannya dalam Regu 2
baru usai bertugas memakamkan jenazah di Kecamatan Kasihan, Kabupaten
Bantul, Minggu, (17/5) tengah malam.
Mereka tengah bersantap sahur di Posko Badan Penanggulangan Bencana Daerah (BPBD) DIY ketika telepon kembali berdering.
Ada kabar dari Rumah Sakit
Panembahan Senopati, sebuah RSUD Bantul yang mengharuskan regu kembali
bergerak.“Kami diberi tahu ada bayi meninggal,” kata Wisnu.Jatah piket
24 jam itu bikin regu 2 kembali bergerak.
Tubuh mereka pun dibebat baju hazmat
lagi lengkap dengan perangkat APD lain. Delapan orang naik mobil menuju
ke rumah sakit. Meliputi 6 orang tim penanganan jenazah ditambah 2
pendukung yang bertugas melakukan dekontaminasi.
Dari rumah sakit, mobil tim berjalan
beriringan dengan mobil ambulans rumah sakit yang membawa jenazah
menuju tempat pemakaman umum di Kecamatan Dlingo, Bantul. Dan ketika
peti mungil itu dikeluarkan di atas drakbar, tim pun terkejut.“Pas kami
tahu itu mak tratap. Tahu kalau itu jenazah bayi.
Tapi gak mengira baru usia 10 hari,”
aku Wisnu.Bayi itu berstatus pasien dalam pengawasan (PDP). Berfokus
pada proses pemakaman, membuat Wisnu tak sempat tahu lebih banyak
kondisi ibu bayi.
Dan setali tiga uang dengan status
di media sosial itu, Wisnu pun mengakui itu pemakaman paling berat
secara psikis.“Justru peti kecil itu penguburan yang berat bagi kami.
Saya punya anak. Teman-teman dalam tim juga punya anak,” ucap Wisnu.
Mereka pun teringat anak-anak mereka
yang menanti di rumah. Diakui Wisnu, jenazah bocah yang pernah mereka
makamkan sebelumnya adalah anak usia 13 tahun.
2. Proses pemakaman dilalui dengan
merangkak di jalan sempitSebelum masuk ke pemakaman, tiga relawan
menyalatkan jenazah. Menurut Wisnu, begitulah salah satu tugas tim
penanganan jenazah.
Selain memakamkan, juga menyalatkan
jenazah yang muslim sebelum dikuburkan.“Karena tak sempat disalatkan di
rumah sakit,” kata Wisnu.Perjuangan pun kembali dimulai ketika masuk ke
pemakaman.
Rupanya TPU itu sudah sangat padat
di area rumah penduduk. Tak hanya nisan-nisan yang berbaris dan
bertebaran di sana. Sejumlah nisan pun dinaungi bangunan-bangunan kecil
yang beratap bak rumah.
“Bentuk pemakaman kayak
perkampungan, kata Wisnu menganalogikan.Sementara letak calon liang
lahat jenazah bayi itu berada di tengah. Untuk menuju ke sana, tim butuh
perjuangan.
Berjalan merunduk di sela-sela
bangunan-bangunan kecil dengan atap yang rendah. Kadang merangkak karena
jalur yang dilalui teramat sempit. Dan peti mungil itu dibawa satu
orang secara berantai.“Jalannya cukup sulit. Setidaknya satu jam lebih
baru rampung,” kata Wisnu.
3. Coretan pada baju hazmat jadi
penanda sekaligus pesanDan ada yang menggelitik dari foto yang diunggah
di akun medsos @Lekday itu. Lantaran baju hazmat yang dikenakan relawan
yang membelakangi kamera tak lagi putih bersih. Baju hazmat itu penuh
coretan.
“SURGA MENANTIMU DEK BAYI,” begitu
bunyi tulisan dengan spidol hitam. Ada lambang malaikat dan love yang
diimbuhkan.“Itu ditulis sebelum berangkat. Masih di posko,” kata Wisnu.
Pemilik hazmat menuliskan kalimat
itu berdasarkan informasi yang mereka dapatkan dari pihak rumah sakit
yang menghubungi. Bahwa ada jenazah bayi yang akan dimakamkan.Dan
rupanya, corat-coret pada baju hazmat sudah menjadi kebiasaan tim
penanganan jenazah sebelum bertugas.
Ada yang dicoret-coret dengan
mencantumkan nama anaknya, nama temannya dengan nada usil, atau pun
pesan-pesan tentang bahaya COVID-19.“Jadi itu sekaligus penanda,” kata
Wisnu.
Mengingat ketika orang-orang dalam
tim sudah mengenakan APD yang membungkus rapat dari ujung kepala hingga
kaki, tak ada lagi yang bisa mengenali satu sama lain. Semua terlihat
sama.“Apalagi regu 2 kemarin. Tinggi badannya rata-rata sama. Kalau gak
ada tanda, susah komunikasinya,” kata Wisnu sambil tertawa.
