Overview
In 2015, the incidence of non-Hodgkin lymphoma was estimated to be 24 cases per 100,000 individuals in the United States. In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of non-Hodgkin lymphoma is 131.1 per 100,000 individuals in 2011.
Epidemiology and Demographics
- Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the most common hematologic malignancy in the world.[1]
- NHL ranks as the 7th most common cancer among males and the 6th most common cancer among females.[1]
Incidence
- The incidence/prevalence of non Hodgkin lymphoma is approximately 13.2 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1][2]
Mortality rate
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop non Hodgkin lymphoma.[3]
- B and T cell lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia occurs most frequently in children and adults greater than 65 years of age.
- Burkitt's Lymphoma affects individuals between 20–64 years of age.
- Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma has a median age of 35.
Race
- Non Hodgkin lymphoma usually affects individuals of the Caucasian race.[4]
- In the US, the relative risk (RR) of HIV-associated NHL in African-American is half that of Caucasians (RR 22.3, 95% CI, 17.1–29 vs. RR 46.2, 95% CI, 38.8–55) mainly due to ethnic variations in immune system regulatory genes.[5]
Gender
- Men are more commonly affected by non Hodgkin lymphoma than women. The Male to female ratio is approximately 1.5:1 to 3:1.[6][7][8]
Region
- The majority of non Hodgkin lymphoma cases are reported in North America, Africa and East Asia.[9]
