Aromatase inhibitors have demonstrated their superiority to tamoxifen as adjuvant therapy for early breast cancer in postmenopausal women, but are associated with an increased risk of fractures. The aim of our study was to analyze bone loss, bone turnover and their determinants in postmenopausal women treated with anastrozole.We investigated bone loss and bone turnover markers (BTM) in a prospective open cohort study of 118 postmenopausal women treated with anastrozole for an early hormone-dependent breast cancer. Women without osteoporosis were not treated and compared with an age-matched control group of 114 healthy women. Osteoporotic patients (T-score
