American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 03/20/09
Uibu T et al. - In addition to their accumulation in lung tissue, asbestos fibers also collect in the retroperitoneal and the mesenteric lymph nodes. Even low-level occupational exposure results in the presence of crocidolite, amosite, anthophyllite, tremolite, or chrysotile in these abdominal lymph nodes. These results support the hypothesis of lymph drainage as an important translocation mechanism for asbestos in the human body.
