Asbestos Exposure Kansas

People who are at an elevated risk of asbestos diseases in Kansas are those who worked in the large aircraft manufacturing and maintenance industry. Affected workers are mostly in Wichita, which is the “Air Capital of the World.”

With agriculture as the primary industry in Kansas, there have been deaths reported in the state due to machinery repair and renovation. Unfortunately, many of the families of these workers also have an increased risk of developing cancer because of the asbestos fibers that were carried home on the body and clothing of those workers.

Common Causes of Mesothelioma in Kansas

Mesothelioma is a type of cancer primarily caused by exposure to asbestos, a naturally occurring mineral once widely used in various industries for its heat resistance and durability. In Kansas, like many other states, mesothelioma cases have been linked to occupational and environmental exposure to asbestos.

Here are some common causes of mesothelioma in Kansas:

Due to the long latency period of mesothelioma, individuals exposed to asbestos in Kansas may not develop symptoms until decades after exposure.

Statistics for Mesothelioma Cases in Kansas

Kansas ranks 29th in the U.S. for asbestos-related deaths. There have been 337 deaths from mesothelioma and asbestos lung cancer between 1999 – 2013.
