Do Women Diagnosed With
Mesothelioma
Survive Longer Than Men?
Mesothelioma
is a type of cancer that
typically affects the outer lining
of the lungs. There is one
known cause of mesothelioma:
asbestos exposure.
Many people
develop
mesothelioma
due to
asbestos
exposure at
work.
Since mesothelioma has a
large latency period, a
mesothelioma diagnosis
may come decades after the
exposure occurred.
Many people diagnosed with
mesothelioma worked in
mining, ship building,
pipe fitting, and other industries
where asbestos exposure
was common.
By and large, men
were more likely to
work in these jobs.
Subsequently,
many more men
are diagnosed with
mesothelioma
than women.
But recent research
reveals that women
who are diagnosed
with mesothelioma
are more likely to
live longer than men
who are diagnosed
with the same
disease.
Research by the Cancer Epidemiology
and Intelligence Division of Cancer
Council Victoria in Melbourne found that
women diagnosed with mesothelioma
tend to live longer and respond better to
treatment than men.
Researchers also found that women have a higher
overall five-year net survival rate for cancer in general.
This particular study
did not go into the
reasons why
women tend to
live longer and
respond better to
mesothelioma
treatment.
However, these findings may
prove useful as scientists and
researchers continue to study
mesothelioma and treatment
options for patients.
Mesothelioma patients who were exposed to asbestos on the job
may be eligible for compensation. We can explain more in
a free consultation at a location that is convenient for you.

Do Women Diagnosed With Mesothelioma Survive Longer Than Men?

  • 1. - Presented By - Do Women Diagnosed With Mesothelioma Survive Longer Than Men?
  • 2. Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that typically affects the outer lining of the lungs. There is one known cause of mesothelioma: asbestos exposure.
  • 3. Many people develop mesothelioma due to asbestos exposure at work. Since mesothelioma has a large latency period, a mesothelioma diagnosis may come decades after the exposure occurred.
  • 4. Many people diagnosed with mesothelioma worked in mining, ship building, pipe fitting, and other industries where asbestos exposure was common.
  • 5. By and large, men were more likely to work in these jobs. Subsequently, many more men are diagnosed with mesothelioma than women.
  • 6. But recent research reveals that women who are diagnosed with mesothelioma are more likely to live longer than men who are diagnosed with the same disease.
  • 7. Research by the Cancer Epidemiology and Intelligence Division of Cancer Council Victoria in Melbourne found that women diagnosed with mesothelioma tend to live longer and respond better to treatment than men.
  • 8. Researchers also found that women have a higher overall five-year net survival rate for cancer in general.
  • 9. This particular study did not go into the reasons why women tend to live longer and respond better to mesothelioma treatment.
  • 10. However, these findings may prove useful as scientists and researchers continue to study mesothelioma and treatment options for patients.
  • 11. Mesothelioma patients who were exposed to asbestos on the job may be eligible for compensation. We can explain more in a free consultation at a location that is convenient for you.
