What is the prevalence of MIRAGE Syndrome?
How many people does MIRAGE Syndrome affect? Does it have the same prevalence in men and women? And in the different countries?
This is currently unknown. It affects both male and female children, but to date I do not know of any who have reached adulthood. The original Japanese research study was comprised of 11 patients. Counting my son, I am in contact with 14 additional children around the world. As awareness grows, more children will receive the diagnosis and potentially more effective treatment. However, I believe this is a very rare disorder affecting a small overall percentage of the population.
