A rare type of cancer called mesothelioma is caused by an exposure to asbestos and asbestos products. There are two forms of mesothelioma: benign and malignant, but mesothelioma is rarely benign. Therefore mesothelioma is usually referred to as the malignant state or as a tumor. As with other forms of cancer, malignant mesothelioma tumors will expand and spread to other parts of the body.

The 3 types of mesothelioma cells are epithelioid, sarcomatoid and mixed/biphasic.

It is a more serious form of mesothelioma, but is usually found 7-20% of the time. The 3rd type of mesothelioma cell is a mixture of both types of mesothelioma cells and occurs about 20-35% of the time.

In addition to being 3 types of mesothelioma cells, there are 3 types of mesothelioma each affecting a different part of the body. The 3 types of mesothelioma are pleural mesothelioma, peritoneal mesothelioma, and pericardial mesothelioma.
