  • Title: Ignored occupational risks of asbestos mesotheliomas.
    Author: Pinto C, Soffritti M, Maltoni C.
    Journal: Med Lav; 1995; 86(5):484-9. PubMed ID: 8684299.
    Abstract:
    Nine cases of asbestos mesothelioma following usually ignored asbestos exposure were reported. In these cases the asbestos exposure has been traced following a thorough medical inquiry within the hospital. Such a type of inquiry would reduce the number of mesotheliomas due to unknown causes or considered spontaneous. The role of the hospitals as a primary source of epidemiological information is stressed.
