Mesothelioma Treatment: Study Shows Staged Surgery Increases Survival

Brylex acknowledges the importance of mesothelioma research, and we were pleased to learn about the recent study from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. As reported by Povtak (2023), the study found that patients diagnosed with mesothelioma in both the thoracic and abdominal cavities can achieve extended survival with the preferred types of aggressive surgery. The findings indicated that a "long-term survival can be achieved with an aggressive, staged surgical approach" (Povtak, 2023).


As a company that specializes in asbestos abatement and removal, we are acutely aware of the dangers of asbestos exposure and its association with mesothelioma. Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer caused by exposure to asbestos, which is commonly found in building materials used in construction, manufacturing, and shipbuilding. Therefore, we applaud the researchers and healthcare professionals who are dedicating their time and expertise to improve mesothelioma treatments and outcomes.


Brylex is committed to providing safe and effective asbestos abatement services to protect workers, building occupants, and the environment. We work closely with our clients to develop tailored solutions that comply with all relevant regulations and standards.


We welcome the findings of the Baylor study as a step forward in the treatment of mesothelioma. As a company that deals with asbestos regularly, we are committed to raising awareness about the dangers of asbestos and providing safe and effective solutions to mitigate its risks. We hope that the ongoing research and development in this field will continue to improve the lives of those affected by mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases.
