Overview
The incidence ZD is approximately 2 per 100,000 individuals worldwide, The prevalence of ZD is between 0.01 to 0.11% per 100,000 individuals worldwide. The mortality rate is 0.3% for stapled rigid endoscopic procedures. Mortality rate for non-stapled rigid endoscopic procedures is 0.2%. ZD commonly affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, especially people in their 7th and 8th decades.There is no racial predilection to ZD.Males are more commonly affected by ZD than females. The men to women ratio is approximately 1.5 to 1. The majority of ZD cases are reported in northern Europe.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
The incidence ZD is approximately 2 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1][2][3]
Prevalence
The prevalence of ZD is between 0.01 to 0.11% per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1][2][3]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- Mortality rate is 0.3% for stapled rigid endoscopic procedures.
- Mortality rate for non-stapled rigid endoscopic procedures is 0.2%.
Age
ZD commonly affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, especially people in their 7th and 8th decades.[1]
Race
There is no racial predilection to ZD.
Gender
Males are more commonly affected by ZD than females. The men to women ratio is approximately 1.5 to 1.[1]
Region
The majority of ZD cases are reported in northern Europe.[1][4]
