Abstract
Cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide are commonly used anticancer agents. A major limiting factor in their use is the resulting bladder toxicity which can result in ongoing bladder pain, urgency and dysuria. These drugs and their metabolites come into contact with the urothelium when they are excreted in the urine, potentially damaging the urothelium.
