Overview

The exact incidence and prevalence for linitis plastica is unknown, however, linitis plastica is estimated to account for almost 30% of gastric cancers (previously thought to be 10%) with a declining incidence. There is a particularly high incidence rate in those individuals belonging to the Korean, Chinese and Japanese races.

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

The exact incidence of linitis plastica is unknown.^[1]
The incidence for gastric cancer overall in 2012 was 7.2 per 100,000 in the United States.
Linitis plastica was previously thought to account for 10% of gastric cancer, but now may account for as much as 30% of gastric cancers.
There has been a gradual decline in the incidence of linitis plastica.

Prevalence

The exact prevalence of linitis plastica is unknown.^[1]
The prevalence of gastric cancer is estimated to be 22,220 cases annually.
The prevalence of linitis plastica is approximately 23.5 per 100,000 in 2011 in the United States.

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

The number of deaths is 3.2 per 100,000 men and women per year.^[1]

Age

Linitis plastica commonly affects individuals younger than 40 years of age. The median age at diagnosis is between 20 - 25 years.^[1]

Race

Linitis plastica usually affects individuals of Asian origin including Korean, Chinese, Taiwanese and Japanese populations. However, it is becoming more frequent in Europe.^[1]

Race	Number affected by gastric cancer per 100,000
Race	Male	Female
White	9	4.5
Black	13.6	7.8
Hispanic	13	8.5
Non-Hispanic	13.7	8.1
Asian/Pacific Islander	14	8
American Indian/Alaskan Native	13.7	8.1

Gender

Linitis plastica affects men and women equally.^[1]

Region

The majority of linitis plastica cases are reported in Asia in countries including China and Japan.^[2]
