Overview
The general incidence of unilateral renal agenesis (URA) has been reported to be approximately 1 in 2031 individuals. Males are more commonly affected by unilateral renal agenesis (URA) than females. The incidence of bilateral renal agenesis (BRA) is approximately 1 in every 3000 pregnancies. The mortality rate of bilateral renal agenesis (BRA) without prenatal therapy is 100%.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The general incidence of unilateral renal agenesis (URA) has been reported to be approximately 1 in 2031 individuals, however, the incidence of URA based on prenatal studies alone has been reported to be 1 in 8091.[1]
- The incidence of bilateral renal agenesis (BRA) is approximately 1 in every 3000 pregnancies.[2][3]
Prevalence
A report showed that the overall prevalence of unilateral renal agenesis (URA) was 4 per 10,000 in all births which included terminations of pregnancy (TOP) and intrauterine deaths (IUD).[4]
Mortality rate
The mortality rate of bilateral renal agenesis (BRA) without prenatal therapy is 100%.[5]
Gender
Males are more commonly affected by unilateral renal agenesis (URA) than females. It has been reported that 63% of the patients with URA are male.[1]
