在丹麦的一个代表性地区，47033人中白癜风的患病率为0.38%。男女都受到同样的影响。179例白癜风患者分布在5个市、城乡之间无显著差异。不同年龄的患病率从10岁以下的0.09%上升到60-69岁年龄组的0.90%，70岁以后患病率下降。这种下降可能反映了过去几十年来白癜风发病率的增加。随着年龄的增长，白癜风的新病例数量稳步增加，其发病最常发生在40-60岁之间。白癜风在丹麦的流行可能也适用于欧洲西北部。
The prevalence of vitiligo was 0.38% in 47,033 people in a representative region in Denmark. Both sexes were equally affected. No significant difference was found in the distribution of 179 patients with vitiligo among 5 municipalities or between urban and rural districts. The age-specific prevalence increased from 0.09% under the age of 10 yr to 0.90% in the age group 60-69 yr. After the age of 70, the prevalence declined. This fall might reflect an increased incidence of vitiligo during the past few decades. The number of new cases of vitiligo increased steadily with advancing age, its onset being most often between the ages of 40-60 yr. The prevalence of vitiligo in Denmark probably also applies to NW Europe.
