For reference to the OP's post:
Pericarditis is swelling and irritation of the thin, sac-like tissue surrounding the heart (pericardium).

Pericardial mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that affects the lining of the heart, which is also known as the pericardium. It is the rarest of the three main types of mesothelioma, making up less than 1% of all cases. It also has the shortest life expectancy. It has been associated with asbestos exposure.
