ABSTRACT
Diffuse pleural mesothelioma is a malignant mesothelioma, which is characterized by diffuse involvement of pleura or pericardium, strong invasion, high malignancy and poor prognosis. The onset of diffuse pleural mesothelioma is concealed. Most of them are in the late stage at the initial diagnosis. The treatment is difficult and the curative effect is poor. The 5-year survival rate is about 10%, and the median survival time is 7 to 9 months 1. Accurate pathological diagnosis and prognosis analysis are very important for patients to choose the most appropriate treatment. Therefore, it is urgent to make a fuller understanding of diffuse pleural mesothelioma on the basis of existing pathological research and clinical research evidence, so as to improve the level of standardized clinical diagnosis and treatment.
