Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • Pyloric stenosis occurs in 1 of every 200-300 live births

Gender

  • It is four times more common in males.

Race

  • It is rare in Asians, and it is 2 to 3 times more common in Caucasian compared to African American babies.

Prevalence

  • In one study the prevalence of congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in Donetsk region in the course of 11 years (1989-1999) was 0.73:1000 or 1:1370 newborn infants annual with range of 0.54 to 1.01:1000.

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

  • In [year], the incidence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [number range]%.
  • The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [disease name] is approximately [number range].

Age

  • Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
  • The incidence of [disease name] increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is [#] years.
  • [Disease name] commonly affects individuals younger than/older than [number of years] years of age.
  • [Chronic disease name] is usually first diagnosed among [age group].
  • [Acute disease name] commonly affects [age group].

Race

  • There is no racial predilection to [disease name].
  • [Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].

Gender
