Malignant localized fibrous tumor of the pleura occurring in a person environmentally exposed to tremolite asbestos.
    Respiration; international review of thoracic diseases, 1997, Volume: 64, Issue:3

    A case is presented of a malignant localized pleural fibroma occurring in a 60-year-old Turkish female who was environmentally exposed to tremolite. The tumor was excised but recurred 3 years later when it was again excised. It is possible that more radical surgery at initial presentation with chest wall resection would have been advantageous.
