Overview
Oligoastrocytoma is the third most common glioma. Oligoastrocytoma accounts for 1% of all brain tumors and 5–10% of all glial neoplasms. The incidence of oligoastrocytoma is approximately 0.03 per 100,000 individuals in the United States. Oligoastrocytoma is a disease that tends to affect the young and middle-aged adult population. The median age of diagnosis is 42 years. Males are more commonly affected with oligoastrocytoma than females. Oligoastrocytoma usually affects individuals of the Caucasian race. The incidence rate of oligoastrocytoma is higher in developed countries than in developing countries.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- Oligoastrocytoma is the third most common glioma.[1]
- Oligoastrocytoma accounts for 1000 out of 100,000 of all brain tumors and 5000-10,000 out of 100,000 of all glial neoplasms.[2]
Incidence
- The incidence of oligoastrocytoma is approximately 3 per 100,000 individuals in the United States.[3]
Age
- Oligoastrocytoma is a disease that tends to affect the young and middle-aged adult population.[2]
- Oligoastrocytoma most commonly occurs in between 30-50 years of age.
- The median age of diagnosis is 42 years.[4]
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected with oligoastrocytoma than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 1.43 to 1.[5]
Race
