Abstract

Background: Asbestos is a natural fiber leading to health risks like chronic Lung diseases. The current study aimed to estimate pleural Mesothelioma and Lung cancer risk for population exposure to Asbestos in Tehran, Iran. Study Design: A cross-sectional study. Methods: According to the annual report of Air Quality Control Company (AQCC), from 2011-2020, carcinogenic risk and Mesothelioma were assessed based on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) method using the Monte Carlo simulation (MCS). The relative risk (RR) of mortality cancer was calculated based on Camus and colleagues’,model. Moreover, Mesothelioma risk was estimated by Bourgault and colleagues’,model. Results: The mean concentration and health risk of Asbestos in ambient air generally reduced from 2011 to 2020. The highest mortality risk for Lung cancer was 8. 4 per 100 000 persons in 2011 and reduced to 1. 8 in 2017. For Mesothelioma, the corresponding values were 8. 96 per 100 000 persons in 2011 and reduced to 1. 92 in 2017. Conclusion: The findings of this study could be helpful to health policymakers in the management of Asbestos risk.
