Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the most common hematologic malignancy in the world.[1]
  • NHL ranks as the 7th most common cancer among males and the 6th most common cancer among females.[1]

Incidence

  • The incidence/prevalence of Non Hodgkin Lymphoma is approximately 13.2 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[1]

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

  • Non Hodgkin Lymphoma is the 6th most common cause of cancer related death in the world.[1]

Age

  • Patients of all age groups may develop Non Hodgkin Lymphoma.[2]
  • B and T cell lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia occurs most frequently in children and adults greater than 65 years of age.
  • Burkitt Lymphoma affects individuals between 20–64 years of age.
  • Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma has a median age of 35.

Race

  • Non Hodgkin Lymphoma usually affects individuals of the Caucasian race.[3]
  • In the US, the relative risk (RR) of HIV-associated NHL in African-American is half that of Caucasians (RR 22.3, 95% CI, 17.1–29 vs. RR 46.2, 95% CI, 38.8–55) mainly due to ethnic variations in immune system regulatory genes.[4]

Gender

  • Men are more commonly affected by Non Hodgkin Lymphoma than women. The Male to female ratio is approximately 1.5:1 to 3:1.[5][6][7]

Region

  • The majority of Non Hodgkin Lymphoma cases are reported in North America, Africa and East Asia.[8]
