Overview
There is no enough information regarding the epidemiology of hypopituitarism and it was only one study combining two cross-sectional studies performed regarding hypopituitarism epidemiology.[1]
Epidemiology and Demographics
There is no enough information regarding the epidemiology of hypopituitarism and it was only one study combining two cross-sectional surveys performed regarding hypopituitarism epidemiology.[1]
Incidence
- In a longitudinal survey (1992-1999), the incidence of hypopituitarism was estimated to be 4.2 cases per 100,000.[1]
- A study was done to find out etiological distribution among 773 adults with hypopituitarism that showed:[2]
- Non-tumoral etiology (50%)
- Pituitary tumors (43.6 %)
- Extra-pituitary tumors (7.2%)
Prevelance
A study comprising two cross-sectional surveys showed[1]
- The prevalence of hypopituitarism was found to be 29 per 100,000 individual in the first cross-sectional study
- The prevalence of hypopituitarism was found to be 45.5 per 100,000 individual in the second cross-sectional study.
Gender
- Men and women are affected equally by hypopituitarism.
Age
- Hypopituitarism occurs at any age.
Race
- There is no racial predilection for hypopituitarism.
