Overview
The prevalence of Waldenström macroglobulinemia is estimated to be 1,500 cases in United States annually. Waldenström's macroglobulinemia represents 1% of all hematological cancers.
Epidemiology and Demographics
- Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma is one of the rare subtypes of NHL accounting just 1-2% of it.
Prevalence
- The prevalence of Waldenström macroglobulinemia is estimated to be 1000-1,500 cases in United States annually.[1][2]
Incidence
- World-wide, age-adjusted incidence of Waldenström macroglobulinemia is 0.38 cases per 100,000 persons annually, increasing with age to 2.85 in patients above 80 years.[3]
Age
- The incidence of Waldenström's macroglobulinemia increases after 50 years of age.[4]
Gender
- Men are twice more likely than women to develop WM(5.4 vs. 2.7 per million, respectively). [1][5][6]
Race
- Higher incidence in whites (4.1 per million per year) comparative to blacks (1.8 per million per year) and in past 20 years, incidence in whites has elevated.[1][5][7]
