Thyroid pericardial is less prevalent than pleural mesothelioma and related to exposure to asbestos, in this type of asbestos particles settle in the pericardium (the heart lining). Scientists don't know how asbestos can get in the pericardium, there is a imagine how asbestos particles are transferred from the pleura with steam and then blood to the heart, the heart pumps and pericardial disease begins pushing.

Peritoneal Mesothelioma is a type of mesothelioma, and affects the peritoneum. Peritoneum is the outer membrane of internal organs in the abdominal cavity. Peritoneal Mesothelioma is often linked to exposure to asbestos.

Thyroid symptoms can be shortness of breath, cough, chest pain and general weakness. Thyroid diagnosis is difficult because the symptoms are very similar to other types of diseases take a long time to appear 25-50 years. Treatment options are limited to surgery, chemotherapy (specialty chemicals to kill cancer cells) and radiation (using a kind of radiation to get rid of cancer cells).
