Biphasic mesothelioma is the second most common cellular form of the disease, accounting for 20 to 40 percent of all known cases. As the name implies, biphasic mesothelioma is a mixture of two types of mesothelioma cells. Properties
Unlike more common epithelioid type, biphasic mesothelioma cells structure. This type of mesothelioma-combination of epithelioid sarcomatoid cells. While the former has a nucleus clearly visible and found in unitary arrangement, organization, and tend to be in one form, sarcomatoid cells are more oval or rectangle on the form and not the nucleus can be identified easily. Although the types of bothmisothilioma found in biphasic tumor, they have a tendency to form different groups; it's not usually found in the same area of the tumor. Diagnosis and treatment

Mesothelioma doctors usually take x rays; if there is cause for concern, refer the patient to the radiology lab, where more advanced images are taken. If you find natural areas, is taking a tissue sample or biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.
Recent test developed by a Japanese company in biotechnology, called MESOMARK ™, may help doctors diagnose Mesothelioma at an early stage, when it is more treatable.
In most cases, treatment is limited to those euphemisms, where usually it is diagnosed too late for mesothelioma surgery. Mesothelioma usually is treated with multiple modes of treatment involving a combination of radiation and chemotherapy; surgical techniques can be used to relieve the symptoms, but in later stages are usually not effective in treating the disease.
