Breast cancers in women with low serum adiponectin levels have been reported to show phenotypes that are more aggressive. In 2008, we investigated the relationship between serum adiponectin levels and breast cancer in our case-controlled study involving 83 patients, in which serum adiponectin levels were measured preoperatively. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between serum adiponectin levels and breast cancer-specific survival among these 83 patients.
