Abstract

In two female workers (nonsmokers) and in one male worker (a smoker) employed in the same mill with a history of asbestosis, bronchogenic lung carcinoma type adenocarcinoma (women), respectively anaplastic carcinoma (a man) had developed. All the three patients worked in the same area in a spinning-mill. The duration of exposure to asbestos was relatively short (10 to 15 years) in female workers, while the duration of exposure to asbestos was much longer in a male worker (29 years), although it was intermittent. Dyspnea was the main and the only discomfort. In accordance with the International Labour Organization (ILO) classification, a chest radiograph revealed the lesions of s/t 1/2 and s/t 2/1 features. There was also a ventilation deficit (very decreased carbon monoxide diffusing capacity).
