The mean Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) score of the participants was 68.68±14.68. Among dimensions of post trauma, the dimension of "spiritual changes" and "communication with others" had the highest score (7.63±2.13 and 25.03±4.9 respectively). From different variables age (r= 0.193; P<0.001) had reverse relation with post traumatic growth and significant difference was shown between level of education, (P<0.013), income (P<0.15) and growth after trauma.Conclusion: Study results showed that despite many physical, PSYCHOLOGICAL and social problems in cancer PATIENTS, confronting such STRESSful trauma can result in positive PSYCHOLOGICAL outcome.
