Malignant mesothelioma cancer cell types include epithelial, sarcomatous, biphasic, lymphohistiocytoid and desmoplastic. For example, “epithelial” malignant mesothelioma refers to cancerous cells that develop in the “epithelium,” which is the membrane lining of the lung, heart, or abdomen.
Among gastric non-epithelial or epithelial malignant tumors, malignant mesothelioma is rare and has an extremely poor prognosis. There are four types of malignant mesothelioma: epithelial mesothelioma, sarcomatoid mesothelioma, biphasic mesothelioma and desmoplastic mesothelioma. Epithelial cells have a well-defined and uniform shape. Epithelial mesothelioma is the most common type of malignant mesothelioma. Epithelial mesothelioma usually affects the outer linings and membranes of the body's internal organs.
