With the progressive improvement in the survival of children with acute lymphocytic leukemia, the question of late effects of therapy on normal tissue becomes a more significant problem. In a review of a large number of children who have received long‐term treatment with chemotherapy, especially methotrexate, a significant increase in the serious effects on hepatic, pulmonary, and skeletal tissue was noted. A review of the methotrexate‐induced acute and chronic changes seen in these tissues is the basis for this report.
