Lung cancer causes the largest number of deaths related to asbestos exposure.
People who were involved in the mining, milling and manufacturing of asbestos or the use of asbestos products show a much higher incidence of lung cancer than the general population. The most common symptoms are coughing and a change in breathing. Other symptoms can include shortness of breath, persistent chest pains, hoarseness and anemia. People who have been exposed to asbestos and who smoke have a significantly greater risk of developing lung cancer than people who have only been exposed to asbestos. One study found that asbestos workers who smoke are 90 times more likely to develop lung cancer than people who neither smoke nor have been exposed to asbestos.
