Overview
Epidemiology
Incidence
- The estimated annual incidence of distal renal tubular acidosis is 10 in 100,000 population.
- Proximal renal tubular acidosis is less common than distal renal tubular acidosis.
Demographics
Age
- Renal tubular acidosis is more common in infants than other group of population
Gender
- Distal renal tubular acidosis affects men and women equally.
- However, proximal renal tubular acidosis is more common in males than females.
Race
- There is racial predilection for renal tubular acidosis.
