Overview
The prevalence and demographic characteristics of renal papillary necrosis depend on the causative agent.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- Renal papillary necrosis due to analgesic abuse is more prevalent in Australia and England and less in the US. [1]
- In Australia, the prevalence of renal papillary necrosis ranges from 15000 per 100,000 persons to 20000 per 100,000 persons requiring kidney transplant. [1]
- The prevalence of renal papillary necrosis was reported 65,000 per 100,000 patients with sickle cell disease. [2]
- In Africa, the prevalence of symptomatic renal papillary necrosis was reported 2300 per 100,000 patients with sickle cell disease with homozygous S. [3]
Incidence
- In developing countries, the incidence of renal papillary necrosis is 3900 per 100,000 persons.[4]
- The incidence of renal papillary necrosis is 30,000 to 40,000 per 100,000 patients with Sickle cell disease. [5]
Age
- The prevalence of renal papillary necrosis increases with age. It commonly affects the elderly (>60 years). "Renal Papillary Necrosis - American Urological Association".
- Renal papillary necrosis due to sickle cell disease commonly affects adults in the third and fourth decades.[6]
Gender
- Renal papillary necrosis is more prevalent in women.[1][3]
