Law Firm Launches Website to Educate Victims on Mesothelioma

(PRWEB) July 20, 2007 -- The Maune Raichle Law Firm details prevention, symptoms and diagnosis information for Mesothelioma on their new website. This site is currently being promoted with the assistance of ePlus Marketing.

Mesothelioma is a cancer of the mesothelium; the protective sac that covers and protects most internal organs of the body. Mesothelioma results from breathing microscopic asbestos fibers into the lungs. Workers exposed to asbestos on the job should wear protective clothing and masks.

Mesothelioma causes a buildup of tumor tissue surrounding the lung and fluid in the pleural space that prevents the lungs from moving easily and expanding naturally. Pressure on the lungs caused by this build up leads to pain and shortness of breath; two of the most common symptoms. More medical information on mesothelioma can be found on the site.

Mesothelioma is a serious disease. Half of the patients diagnosed at an early stage and treated aggressively live two years from the date of the diagnosis. One in five are still alive five years after diagnosis. Some patients live more than five years after diagnosis, but generally only if they have been diagnosed at an early date.
