Fibromuscular dysplasia is most commonly seen in which group?

• A. Males; 60-80
• B. Females; 25-50
• C. Very young children
• D. Elderly 70+

Answer: (C)

Fibromuscular dysplasia shows a strong female predominance and tends to occur in middle-aged adults. The most typical description is women in their 30s to 40s, roughly in the 25–50 age range. That makes the statement describing females aged 25–50 the best fit. Very young children and elderly individuals are not the common groups affected, and the condition is far less common in males. This epidemiology helps distinguish FMD from other vascular diseases that have different age and sex patterns.
