Overview
Optic nerve gliomas affects females and males equally. Optic nerve gliomas commonly affects individuals younger than twenty years of age. There is no racial predilection to the optic nerve glioma.[1]
Epidemiology and Demographics
- Optic nerve gliomas typically present in children, and often in the setting of NF1 (10-63%).
- In adults, optic nerve gliomas do occur but are very rare and usually aggressive tumors. In such cases no association with NF1 has been found.[2]
- Five percentage (5%) of all childhood brain tumors account for optic nerve gliomas. About 1% of all intracranial tumors are comprised of optic-nerve gliomas.[3] It is most common in children who have the genetic condition neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1).
Incidence
The incidence of NF-1 among patients of optic nerve glioma is 10-70% and the incidence of optic nerve glioma in patients with NF-1 varies from 8% to 31%.[4]
Gender
Males and females are equally affected.
Age
The mean age of presentation of optic nerve glioma is 8.8 years.[5] The majority of optic nerve gliomas occur in children. They are usually slow-growing and noncancerous and almost always occur before age 20.[2]
