Overview
DES is relatively uncommon disease with incidence of 1 per 100,000 in the USA that can affect all age groups.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of DES is approximately 1 per 100,000 individuals in USA[1].
Prevalence
- The prevalence of DES is 400 per 100,000 patients referred for esophageal symptoms; 7 per 100 morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery[2], 2-7% among patients with known cardiac diseases[3].
- Large series of patients undergoing esophageal motility testing for related symptoms had prevalence of DES 400-1000 per 100,000.[4]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- There are no reported cases of mortality due to DES.
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop DES, but limited study results shows more common in age group 60-80 years and the prevalence of disease increases with age.
Race
- There is no racial predilection to DES.
Gender
- Female are more commonly affected by DES than male.
