Overveiw
Trauma is the main cause of acute spinal cord compression followed by compression due to metastasis. The annual incidence rates of spinal cord compression is estimated approximately to be 8-246 cases per 100,000 population. Men are more commonly affected with spinal cord compression than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 4 to 1
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The annual incidence rates of spinal cord compression due to trauma is estimated approximately to be 8-246 cases per 100,000 population.[1][2]
- The annual incidence rates of spinal cord compression due to cancer related in the US is approximately 20,000.
- The annual incidence rates of spinal cord compressiom due to epidural abscess in the US is approximately 2.8 cases per 10,000 hospital admissions
Prevalence
- The annual prevalence of spinal cord compression is estimated to 236 to 1,298 per million pouplation.
Demographics
Gender
Men are more commonly affected with spinal cord compression than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 4 to 1.
Race
There is no racial predilection to spinal cord compression.
