Overview
Males are more commonly affected with small intestine cancer than females. Male to female ratio is approximately 1.4 to 1. Small intestine cancer usually affects individuals of the African Americans race. Caucasian individuals are less likely to develop small intestine cancer.
Epidemiology and Demographics
- Sex- Small intestine cancer is more common in males, with male-to-female ratio of 1.4:1.
- Small intestinal cancer makes less than two percent of the gastrointestinal track cancers.[1]
- Incidence has increased recently particularly in African American males and it is unchanged for the females.[2]
- Age adjusted incidence rates were 1.2/100,000 inhabitants for men and 0.8/100,000 inhabitants for women shown by a study done in 2006.[3]
- According to a study done among 498,376 men and women in 2014, the age standardized incidence rates for small intestinal cancers were 5.5 and 4.8 per 100,000 person-years for men and women, respectively. For the histologic subtypes, the incidence rates per 100,000 person-years were 2.2 and 1.3 for adenocarcinomas, and 2.6 and 2.9 for carcinoids, for men and women, respectively.[4]
