Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of thyroid cancer is approximately 15.8 per 100,000 men and women annually.[1]
- There are 822,242 cases [2]
- The papillary cancer incidence has increased 4.4% per year from 1974 till 2013.[3]
- It is suggested that increase in adiposity in childhood and early adulthood is related with this increase in incidence rate.
- The papillary thyroid cancer incidenced-based mortality increased per year during 1974-2013.[3]
Age
- Papillary thyroid cancer (as is the case with follicular thyroid cancer) typically occurs in middle-aged individuals, with a peak incidence in the 3rd and 4th decades.
- Most commonly manifests in individuals between the ages of 20 to 55.[4]
Gender
- It is more common among women, with female to male ratio of approximately 3:1.[5]
