Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence/prevalence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
- In [year], the incidence/prevalence of [disease name] was estimated to be [number range] cases per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
Prevalence
- The prevalence of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung is approximately 0.4 cases per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1]
- Sarcomatoid carcinoma comprises of 0.3% to 1.3% of total lung malignancies.[2]
- The overall prevalence of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung is 0.1% to 0.4% of all non-small cell lung malignancies.[3]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- In [year], the incidence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [number range]%.
- The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [disease name] is approximately [number range].
Age
- Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung is more commonly diagnosed among patients aged 65 to 75 years old.[4]
- Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung is more commonly observed among elderly patients and adults.
- Biphasic blastoma subtype is an exception and an average age of 35 years old patients being more commonly diagnosed
