  • What is mesothelioma cancer?: In order to understand what mesothelioma cancer is and how it can be treated, one needs to understand what mesothelium is and how it functions in your body. Simply put, it is a very thin blanket of tissue that protects your internal organs and produces lubrication so they can move easily. Each portion of the mesothelium has a different name depending on the area it covers. For instance, the peritoneum is the mesothelium that covers the area around the stomach and intestines. You may also know the mesothelial membranes that cover the lungs (pleura) and heart (pericardium). There are also mesothelial membranes around the reproductive organs.
