| pubmed:abstractText |
Old scars of the pleura, for example from chronic empyema or therapeutic pneumothorax, can cause a malignant mesothelioma appearing some decades later. The authors describe two cases of primary pleural tumors, which probably had such an etiology. A literature review revealed 20 further cases, the majority of which were squamous cell carcinomas. Whether these tumors developed from metaplastic mesothelium or inplanted cells from the skin is not clear.
