Background Tremolite contamination has been proposed as the cause ofmesothelioma in workers exposed to commercial chrysotile. The asbestos industry and scientists it has sponsored, for example, have argued that commercial chrysotile does not cause peritoneal mesothelioma. Method Case report of peritoneal mesothelioma in a mill worker from a tremolite free Canadian mine. Results Reports from pathology and occupational health and safety panels conclude that this mill worker developed work-related peritoneal mesothelioma. Conclusion Chrysotile without tremolite can cause peritoneal mesothelioma.Am. J. Ind
