==Overview==
The incidence of esthesioneuroblastoma is approximately 0.4 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. Esthesioneuroblastoma can present in a wide range of age groups; however, it is mostly noted in a bimodal distribution, occurring most frequently in the second and sixth decades of life.

==Epidemiology and Demographics==
Esthesioneuroblastoma is noted in 4 out of 10 million individuals, accounting for 5% of sinonasal and 3% of [[intracranial]] [[tumors]].<ref name="ShirzadiDrazin2013">{{cite journal|last1=Shirzadi|first1=Ali S.|last2=Drazin|first2=Doniel G.|last3=Strickland|first3=Allison S.|last4=Bannykh|first4=Serguei I.|last5=Johnson|first5=J.

==Incidence==
The incidence of esthesioneuroblastoma was estimated to be 0.4 cases per 100,000 individuals worldwide. 
==Age==
Esthesioneuroblastoma commonly affects individuals in a wide range of age groups younger than 90/older than 3 (3-90) years of age. There exists a bimodal peak of occurrence in the third and sixth decades of life. The majority of cases of esthesioneuroblastoma occur in patients between 40 and 70 years of age; the median age at diagnosis is 53 years.It can present in a wide range of age groups; however, it is mostly noted in a bimodal distribution, occurring most frequently in the second and sixth decades of life.
==Race==
There is no racial predilection to esthesioneuroblastoma.

==Gender==
There was a moderate male predominance with a 55:45 male:female ratio.
Males are more commonly affected with esthesioneuroblastoma than females. The male to female ratio is approximately [1.2 > 1] to 1.<ref name="pmid19721769">{{cite journal| author=Ward PD, Heth JA, Thompson BG, Marentette LJ| title=Esthesioneuroblastoma: Results and Outcomes of a Single Institution's Experience. | journal=Skull Base | year= 2009 | volume= 19 | issue= 2 | pages= 133-40 | pmid=19721769 | doi=10.1055/s-0028-1096195 | pmc=PMC2671304 | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=19721769  }} </ref><ref name="pmid15654688">{{cite journal| author=Diaz EM, Johnigan RH, Pero C, El-Naggar AK, Roberts DB, Barker JL et al.| title=Olfactory neuroblastoma: the 22-year experience at one comprehensive cancer center. | journal=Head Neck | year= 2005 | volume= 27 | issue= 2 | pages= 138-49 | pmid=15654688 | doi=10.1002/hed.20127 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=15654688  }} </ref><ref name="pmid10941155">{{cite journal| author=Resto VA, Eisele DW, Forastiere A, Zahurak M, Lee DJ, Westra WH| title=Esthesioneuroblastoma: the Johns Hopkins experience. | journal=Head Neck | year= 2000 | volume= 22 | issue= 6 | pages= 550-8 | pmid=10941155 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=10941155  }} </ref><ref name="pmid18798301">{{cite journal| author=Bachar G, Goldstein DP, Shah M, Tandon A, Ringash J, Pond G et al.| title=Esthesioneuroblastoma: The Princess Margaret Hospital experience. | journal=Head Neck | year= 2008 | volume= 30 | issue= 12 | pages= 1607-14 | pmid=18798301 | doi=10.1002/hed.20920 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=18798301  }} </ref>
