Abstract Asbestos can damage the lung and may cause pulmonary fibrosis, pleurisy with the formation of thick plaques, mesothelioma of the pleura and peritoneum, and carcinoma of the lung. Forty-three cases of deceased asbestos workers who had X-rays of their chests taken during their working lifetime are reviewed.
