Mesothelium cells serve the function of producing the lubricating fluid that enables the
body organs contained within their cavities to move and slide freely. The lungs will move
freely while the process of breathing. The mesothelium in the chest cavity covers the inner lining of the chest wall and is called parietal pleura. The lungs are also covered almost thoroughly by mesothelium. This quantum of the mesothelium exterior the lungs allowable is called parietal pleura. By their secretions the lungs move freely while inspiration and expiration.
The abdominal cavity has a similar configuration. The inner lining of the abdominal cavity is invested by mesothelium called the parietal peritoneum. The visceral peritoneum covers the surfaces of the intestines and other organs in the abdomen including liver and spleen. Some portions of the intestine are freely movable and dangle on tissue pedicle called mesentery which is sandwiched on both surfaces by visceral peritoneum. Examples of these consist of most of the small intestine, transverse large intestine, sigmoid large intestine, and portions of the underbelly of the liver.
Testicular Cancer
The intestines will move freely while digestion, the heart will move freely while its contracting functions, and the testicles will also freely
slide in the testicular cavity. The development of mesothelioma will therefore whether destroy
the organs contained within these cavities by directly invading them or encase them restricting
their movements like a "boar constrictor" only very slowly. As you can imagine, when these
scenarios occur, the functions of the lungs, heart, and organs of the abdominal cavity will
be severely compromised foremost to a collection of unpleasant and life threatnening effects or
symptoms of the disease and death.
