Overview
Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a rare disease that mostly affects children of early age. The incidence and prevalence of ALPS are unknown. Male predominance has been found.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome(ALPS) is unknown as many cases remain undiagnosed or misdiagnosed.[1]
Prevalence
- The prevalence is not known as many cases are left unidentified. So far 500 patients with ALPS have been identified coming from more than 300 families.[2]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- Mortality rate is 15% in patients with ALPS-FAS by age 50.[2]
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome.[3]
- Typically ALPS appear in early childhood. The median age at diagnosis is 3 years.[4]
Race
- There is no racial predilection to Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome.
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected by Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome than females. The male to female ratio is 14:4.[3]
Region
- There is no information about any specific region where Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome is prevalent.
