Overview
In 2011, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer was 4.45 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[1] The estimated number of new cases in the United States in 2014 is 18.170.[2]
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- In the United States, the age adjusted prevalence of invasive esophageal cancer is 0.0086% in 2011.[1]
Incidence
- The delay-adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer in 2011 was estimated to be 4.51 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[1]
- In 2011, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer was 4.45 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[1]
Age
- While the overall age adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer in the United States between 2007 and 2011 is 4.4 per 100,000, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer by age category is:[1]
- Under 65 years: 1.8 per 100,000
- 65 and over: 22.5 per 100,000
Gender
- In the United States, the age adjusted prevalence of invasive esophageal cancer by gender in 2011 is:[1]
- In males: 0.0147%
- In females: 0.0036%
- In the United States, the delay-adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer by gender in 2011 is:[1]
- In males: 7.83 per 100,000 persons
- In females: 1.83 per 100,000 persons
- In the United States, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive esophageal cancer by gender on 2011 is:[1]
- In males: 7.72 per 100,000 persons
- In females: 1.80 per 100,000 persons
Shown below is an image depicting the delay-adjusted incidence and observed incidence of invasive esophageal cancer by gender and race in the United States between 1975 and 2011. These graphs are adapted from SEER: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program of the National Cancer Institute.[1]
Race
- Shown below is a table depicting the age adjusted prevalence of invasive esophageal cancer by race in 2011 in the United States.[1]
| All Races | White | Black | Asian/Pacific Islander | Hispanic | |
| Age-adjusted prevalence | 0.0086% | 0.0094% | 0.0070% | 0.0047% | 0.0048% |
Shown below is an image depicting the incidence of invasive esophageal cancer by race in the United States between 1975 and 2011.[1]
Percent Distribution of Invasive Esophageal Cancer by Histology
