Analysis reveals racial and socioeconomic disparities in incidence and survival of splenic marginal zone lymphoma.

To examine the incidence and survival trends of splenic marginal zone lymphoma by race and socioeconomic status in the United States.
Analyzed SEER Research Data from 2000-2022
Calculated age adjusted incidence rates and relative survival
Examined variations by race, socioeconomic status, and geography
Identified 3,545 cases of SMZL, with highest incidence in White patients
Five-year relative survival was 75.7% in Black patients versus 87.2% in White patients
Higher incidence noted in urban and high SES counties, while rural areas showed the largest rates despite fewer cases
