Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence and prevalence
- The prevalence of ICEP remains unknown.
- The incidence of chronic eosinophilic pneumonia in an Icelandic registry was 0.23 cases/100,000 population per year between 1990 and 2004. In registries of interstitial lung disease in Europe, chronic eosinophilic pneumonia accounted for 0 to 2500 per 100,000 of cases of interstitial lung disease.[1]
- ICEP has been reported to contribute to 0 to 2500 per 100,000 of cases included in different registries of interstitial lung diseases.
- One third to one half of the ICEP patients have a history of asthma [7-12] and less than 10% are active smokers.
- It has recently been reported that ICEP may be primed by radiation therapy for breast cancer.
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop ICEP but is extremely rare in childhood. CEP typically affects patients in their 30s or 40s.[2]
Race
- There is no racial predilection to ICEP.
Sex
- Women are more commonly affected by ICEP than men. The women to men ratio is approximately 2 to 1.
