It can also lead to thickened pleura patches (pleural plaques) or an increase in fibrosis. Pleural plaques or diffuse fibrosis may reduce lung capacity, as measured by a breath test. They also cause pain and difficulty breathing but they don't cause mesothelioma or cancer.

Workers who handled, cleaned, and removed asbestos from their workplaces as well as children, spouses and others who were exposed to asbestos are at risk for developing mesothelioma.

Other asbestos case-related diseases, apart from mesothelioma, include laryngeal carcinoma and lung cancer as well as peritoneal, ovarian and peritoneal cancer.
