Overview
The incidence of myeloproliferative neoplasm is approximately 2.3-7.8 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1] [2]
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of myeloproliferative neoplasm is approximately 7.8 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1] There are varying incidences for the different subtypes of myeloproliferative neoplasm. The incidence of polycythemia vera is 2 per 100,000 individuals.[3] This statistic includes all eight subtypes of myeloproliferative neoplasm.
- The incidence of polycythemia vera is 0.4-2.8 per 100,000 persons per year.[4]
- The incidence of essential thrombocythemia is 0.38-1.7 per 100,000 persons per year.[4]
- The incidence of primary myelofibrosis is 0.1-1 per 100,000 persons per year.[4]
Age
The prevalence of myeloproliferative neoplasm increases with age.[5] The average age of diagnosis is 60-70.
Gender
Males are more commonly affected with myeloproliferative neoplasm than females.[5] However, females are more likely to be affected by the abdominal symptoms of myeloproliferative neoplasm.[6] Females are also more likely to develop thrombocytopenia than males.[6]. Females have a shorter disease duration.
Race
The prevalence of myeloproliferative neoplasm does not vary by race.[5]
