title: Rickets--a complication of ifosfamide chemotherapy for Wilms tumor.
abstract: Recent reports of metabolic bone disease occurring as a result of drug induced Fanconi syndrome due to ifosfamide have appeared in the pediatric literature. Ifosfamide is a chemotherapeutic agent used for treatment of pediatric solid tumors. We present an additional case of ifosfamide induced rickets, the first in the radiologic literature.
