Approximately 58% had exposure to asbestos, and 73% had a smoking history; familiarity was rarely reported. The most common anatomical site of origin was the right pleura, and the most frequent clinical manifestations were chest pain, dyspnea, cough, and weight loss. Thoracic X\u2010ray and computed tomography were the imaging techniques most employed for diagnosis and surgical planning. The pathological diagnosis was obtained by examination of surgical or biopsy specimens in most cases. The best treatment strategy of deciduoid mesothelioma is a matter of debate; nevertheless a multidisciplinary approach is currently the best option for the choice of the adequate therapeutic scheme.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/crj.12599","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,27]],"date-time":"2016-12-27T10:20:46Z","timestamp":1482834046000},"page":"848-856","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Deciduoid mesothelioma of the thorax: A comprehensive review of the scientific literature"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Panagiotis","family":"Paliogiannis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Experimental Pathology and Oncology, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, Sassari, 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carlo","family":"Putzu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Oncology Unit, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, Sassari, 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giorgio Carlo","family":"Ginesu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surgical Clinic, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, 07100, Sassari Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Laura","family":"Cossu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surgical Clinic, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, 07100, Sassari Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Claudio Francesco","family":"Feo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surgical Clinic, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, 07100, Sassari Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Federico","family":"Attene","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Experimental Pathology and Oncology, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, Sassari, 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabrizio","family":"Scognamillo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Experimental Pathology and Oncology, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, Sassari, 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rita","family":"Nonnis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Experimental Pathology and Oncology, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, Sassari, 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Cossu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Experimental Pathology and Oncology, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Viale San Pietro 43, Sassari, 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Palmieri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Biomolecular Chemistry, Cancer Genetics Unit, C.N.R Traversa La Crucca 3, Sassari, 07040 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pietro","family":"Pirina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pulmonology Clinic, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Vle V.le San Pietro 43, Sassari 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alessandro","family":"Fois","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pulmonology Clinic, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine University of Sassari Vle V.le San Pietro 43, Sassari 07100 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3892\/ol.2013.1333"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","first-page":"37","article-title":"Multimodality approach to malignant pleural mesothelioma.
