Overview

In the United States, bladder cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer in men and the ninth most common cancer in women. More than 47,000 men and 16,000 women are diagnosed with bladder cancer each year. One reason for its higher incidence in men is that the androgen receptor, which is much more active in men than in women, plays a major part in the development of the cancer.[1]

Epidemiology and Demographics

Prevalence

  • In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of bladder cancer is 130.5 in 2011.[2]

Incidence

  • The delay-adjusted incidence of bladder cancer in 2011 was estimated to be 20.74 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[2]
  • In 2011, the age-adjusted incidence of bladder cancer was 20.13 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[2]

Age

  • While the overall age-adjusted incidence of bladder cancer in the United States between 2007 and 2011 is 20.5 per 100,000, the age-adjusted incidence of bladder cancer by age category is:[2]
    • Under 65 years: 5.4 per 100,000
    • 65 and over: 124.7 per 100,000

Gender

  • In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of bladder cancer by gender in 2011 is:[2]
    • In males: 228.9 per 100,000
    • In females: 56.6 per 100,000
  • In the United States, the delay-adjusted incidence of bladder cancer by gender in 2011 is:[2]
    • In males: 36.24 per 100,000 persons
    • In females: 8.98 per 100,000 persons
  • In the United States, the age-adjusted incidence of bladder cancer by gender on 2011 is:[2]
    • In males: 35.18 per 100,000 persons
    • In females: 8.72 per 100,000 persons
  • Shown below is an image depicting the delay-adjusted incidence and observed incidence of bladder cancer by gender and race in the United States between 1975 and 2011. These graphs are adapted from SEER: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program of the National Cancer Institute.[2]
