Overview
Incidence and prevalence differ based on cause. The incidence of DCM has been estimated to be 5-8 cases per 100,000 population, with a prevalence of 36 per 100,000. This could be explained by the incomplete disease expression, which goes unrecognized. The prevalence of HCM in the absence of aortic valve disease or systemic hypertension is at least 200 per 100,000 of the adult population. RCM is much less common than either DCM or HCM in the developed world, but is a frequent cause of death in the tropical countries, primarily because of the high incidence of endomyocardial fibrosis in those regions.
