Overview
Males are more commonly affected with small intestine cancer than females. Male to female ratio is approximately 1.4 to 1. Small intestine cancer usually affects individuals of the African-Americans race. Caucasian individuals are less likely to develop small intestine cancer.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- Incidence of small intestine cancer has increased recently, particularly in African-American males and it is unchanged for the females.[1]
- Age-adjusted number of new cases of small intestine cancer in 2011-2015 was 2.3 per 100,000 individuals per year.[2]
- According to a study done among in 2014, the age standardized incidence rates for small intestinal cancers were 5.5 and 4.8 per 100,000 person-years for men and women, respectively. For the histologic subtypes, the incidence rates per 100,000 person-years were 2.2 and 1.3 for adenocarcinomas, and 2.6 and 2.9 for carcinoids, for men and women, respectively.[3]

Types of Intestinal cancers | Gender (incidence per 100,000 person years) | |
Women | Men | |
Age standardized Incidence of all types | 4.8 | 5.5 |
Adenocarcinoma | 1.3 | 2.2 |
Carcinoid tumor | 2.9 | 2.6 |
Prevalence
- Small intestinal cancer makes less than two percent of the gastrointestinal tract cancers.[4]
Mortality rate
- According to SEERS, the average annual age-adjusted mortality rate for small intestinal cancer in African-American is more than in White population (0.7 vs. 0.5 per 100,000 in males, respectively; 0.5 vs. 0.3 in females, respectively).[2]
- Small intestine cancer contributed to 0.2% of all cancer deaths in 2018.
