Malignant mesothelioma has a strong association with asbestos exposure. It has a peak incidence 35-45 years after asbestos exposure. Although mesothelioma occurs much more frequently in men exposed to asbestos the most common tumor in this population is Squamous cell carcinoma. Mesothelioma has many occupational health and legal implications. It is one of the common reasons for employer-employee law suits.
