    Author: Seggewiss H, Minami K, Körfer R.
    Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1986 Oct; 34(5):330-2. PubMed ID: 2431507.
    Abstract:
    Localized benign mesothelioma of the pleura is a rather uncommon disease with good prognosis after successful tumor extirpation. We present the history of a 66-year-old patient, in whom tumor growth could be observed retrospectively over a period of 6 years. The tumor was extirpated successfully. On the basis of this history and a review of the literature epidemiologic, clinical, radiologic, pathological and prognostic criteria of the tumor are described.
