Epidemiology and Demographics
Ataxia-telangiectasia has an incidence of between 1 in 40,000 and 1 in 100,000. Carrier frequency is thought to be 1:100-200. Some mutations are more common than others is certain geographical regions for example, the 7636del9 mutation is a common mutation in European populations which has been shown to increase the risk of breast cancer in carriers.
