Overview

The incidence of amyloidosis is approximately 1.2 per 100,000 individuals per year worldwide. The actual incidence of wild-type (senile) amyloidosis in particular is unknown. The mortality rate of systemic amyloidosis is approximately 100 per 100,000 deaths in developed countries. Patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis are almost always elderly (65 years of age or older). There is no racial predilection to wild-type (senile) amyloidosis. Men are traditionally more commonly affected by wild-type (senile) amyloidosis than women.

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • The incidence of amyloidosis is approximately 1.2 per 100,000 individuals per year worldwide.[1]
  • The actual incidence of wild-type (senile) amyloidosis in particular is unknown.

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of wild-type (senile) amyloidosis has not been determined.
  • It is estimated that approximately 25% of the people beyond the age of 80 have cardiac TTR deposition.[2]

Mortality rate

  • The mortality rate of systemic amyloidosis is approximately 100 per 100,000 deaths in developed countries.[3]

Age

  • Patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis are almost always elderly (65 years of age or older).

Race

  • There is no racial predilection to wild-type (senile) amyloidosis.

Gender

  • Men are traditionally more commonly affected by wild-type (senile) amyloidosis than women.[4]
