Questão jurídica principal
Whether the deceased's bronchial cancer and death were predominantly caused by occupational asbestos exposure and thus constituted an occupational disease under Swiss accident insurance law.
Decisão extraída
The existing file did not allow a final determination; the medical evidence was contradictory and further expert medical assessment was required.
Fundamentação extraída
Asbestos-related causation for bronchial cancer can exist even without typical histological signs, but the file contained conflicting medical opinions on fibrosis, exposure intensity, and the role of smoking. The court could not decide the causal threshold on the present evidence.
