*In a person exposed to asbestos, they are most likely to develop Bronchogenic Carcinoma!
*In a person with Mesothelioma the cause was 99% due to asbestosis!
Bronchogenic carcinoma includes: adenocarcinoma, bronchoalveolar, Sq. cell, small cell?, and large cell.
So which one is it?
I think Squamous cell... Everyone agree? not? other answers?
