| description | Objectives: To describe the dissemination of asbestos fbres within the Western Australian community.
Methods: A case report.
Results: A 60‐year‐old female was referred for investigation of calcifed pleural plaques. On questioning, she recalled exposure to asbestos as a child on the family farm. She had shaken hessian bags prior to recycling to the fertiliser supplier. Her father survived to 90 years. Her mother died from malignant pleural mesothelioma. Four of fve siblings had shaken the bags, two had radiographic evidence of pleural plaques while two others had not had recent chest x‐rays.
Conclusions: It appears that the use of recycled hessian bags for the fertiliser industry was endemic in the State during the period 1943‐66. It is possible that many farmers and their families have had similar exposure to asbestos.
Implications: The risk of developing an asbestos‐related disease is not restricted to any specifc social or employment groups within the Australian community. |
