Overview
The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer is approximately 16.3/100,000 for women and 5.6/100,000 for men in 2008 in United States. The incidence has increased 4.4 per year during 1974-2013. Females are more commonly affected with papillary thyroid cancer than males. The female to male ratio is approximately 3:1.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer is approximately 16.3/100,000 for women and 5.6/100,000 for men in 2008 in United States.
- There are 45,000 cases in the United States every year and this type of carcinoma has the fastest increasing incidence of any malignancy in the thyroid.[1]
- The papillary cancer incidence has increased 4.4% per year from 1974 till 2013.[2]
- It is suggested that increase in adiposity in childhood and early adulthood is related with this increase in incidence rate.
- The papillary thyroid cancer incidenced-based mortality increased per year during 1974-2013.[2]
Age
- Papillary thyroid cancer (as is the case with follicular thyroid cancer) typically occurs in middle-aged individuals, with a peak incidence in the 3rd and 4th decades.
- Most commonly manifests in individuals between the ages of 20 to 55.[3]
Gender
- Papillary thyroid cancer is commonly found in women of childbearing age.
- It is more common in women with female to male ratio of approximately 3:1.
