Prognosis Mesothelioma - In the case of mesothelioma, the prognosis is not as accurate as with other serious diseases is lower. This is because the prognosis is usually dependent on the stage where the disease is detected. Mesothelioma is usually detected quite late in patients, making it difficult to state the percentage of cure or age of the patient after treatment.
