After follow up, found 170(28.67%) patients were untraceable whose 63(10.62%) patients had no contact number. Among the remaining 473 patients 170(35.94%) were died due to anorexia 162(95.3%), both nausea and vomiting 90(53%), pain and fever 65(38.24%), diarrhea 57(33.53%), respiratory distress 38(22.35%), cachexia 37(21.76%), bleeding and generalized swelling 18(10.60%), opportunistic infection 10(5.88%), stroke 3(1.176%), surgical complication 2(1.18%). Of the died patients male were 96, female were 74 and M:F was 1.3:1. The leading causes of death, according to specific disease, were lung cancer 11(61%), head neck cancer 12(57%), sarcoma 56(46%), GIT(gastrointestinal tract) cancer 39(40.63%) and leukemia 12(35%). Least death occurred in GCT (germ cell tumor) 1(4.34%) and lymphoma 7(9%). Alive patients were 240. Of them male were 84, female were 156 and the ratio was M:F=1:1.86. 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%).
