How many people does Alport Syndrome affect? Does it have the same prevalence in men and women? And in the different countries?
Alport syndrome is a rare disease and affects less than 200,000 people in the US. Alport syndrome is estimated to affect approximately 1 in 5,000-10,000 people in the general population in the United States, which means that approximately 30,000-60,000 people in the United States have the disorder. Alport syndrome is estimated to account for 3% of children with chronic kidney disease and 0.2% of adults with end-stage renal disease in the United States.
