How many babies will be born with pku each year?

Answer 1

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare genetic disorder, and the incidence varies by population. In the United States, approximately 1 in 10,000 to 15,000 newborns is diagnosed with PKU each year. This translates to about 200 to 300 babies born with PKU annually in the U.S. Other countries may have different rates based on genetic factors and screening practices.
