Abstract

A 38-year-old woman with pleural mesothelioma who had a history of neighborhood asbestos exposure during her childhood was demonstrated. She had no known history of occupational asbestos exposure. This is the first case of mesothelioma with neighborhood asbestos exposure reported in Japan. Previously-reported cases of mesothelioma with neighborhood asbestos exposure in the English language literature were reviewed.
