Overview
The incidence of chronic pancreatitis and the number of hospital admissions is increasing in most countries worldwide. The incidence of chronic pancreatitis is approximately 1.6 to 23 cases per 100,000 individuals per year worldwide. A rising level of per capita alcohol consumption is correlated with an increasing prevalence of chronic pancreatitis. Changes in lifestyle modifications such as smoking and alcohol cessation may result in slowing the progression and reducing the incidence of chronic pancreatitis. Alcoholic pancreatitis is more prevalent in developed or industrialized countries. Idiopathic and tropical pancreatitis is more prevalent in developing and underdeveloped countries.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- In 2004, the incidence of chronic pancreatitis was estimated to be 8.1 per 100,000 individuals in the United States of America.[1]
- The incidence of chronic pancreatitis is approximately 1.6 to 23 cases per 100,000 individuals per year worldwide.
- In United States, chronic pancreatitis results in:
- >122,000 outpatient visits per year.
- >56,000 hospitalizations per year.
- The incidence of chronic pancreatitis and the number of hospital admissions is increasing in most countries worldwide.
- Changes in lifestyle modifications such as smoking and alcohol cessation may result in slowing the progression and reducing the incidence of chronic pancreatitis.
Prevalence
- A rising level of per capita alcohol consumption is correlated with an increasing prevalence of chronic pancreatitis.
Age
- The incidence of chronic pancreatitis increases with age; the average age at diagnosis is 49–59.9 years.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
Gender
- Men and women are almost equally affected in the United States.[1][7][8]
- Men are more commonly affected by chronic pancreatitis than females in almost all countries except the United States.[9][10][11][12] [13][5][6][14][15]
Developed countries
- Alcoholic pancreatitis is more prevalent in developed or industrialized countries.
Developing countries
- Idiopathic and tropical pancreatitis is more prevalent in developing and underdeveloped countries.
