Although the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma has been refined during the past two decades, overall survival from this rather uncommon disease is still extremely poor. Here we review the current multimodal diagnostic and treatment options for patients with mesothelioma and discuss promising new experimental concepts in this disease.
