According to specific disease, the highest survival were in testicular malignancy 18(85.71%), breast cancer 88(71%), FGT (female genital tract) 26(70%), lymphoma 44(59%) and GIT malignancy42(43.75%).
Conclusions
Death occurrences were 170(35.94%) and tract out of follow up were 170(28.67%) in AYA that were dangerously alarming for developing countries as youth are majority of total population in developing countries.
