| Abstract | Over the last 30 years there has been a world wide increase in the incidence of malignant mesothelioma, mainly associated with prior exposure to asbestos dust. Mesotheliomas often present with recurrent serous effusions that are usually sent for cytological examination. This review documents the introduction, development and state of the art of cytopathology in the diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma. |
