In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical importance of the vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism in invasive ductal breast cancer. All patients included in the study had clinical T1-2, N0-M0 invasive ductal carcinoma. Patients' demographics, axillary metastasis status, metastatic lymph nodi/total dissected lymph nodes from axilla, histopathologic characteristics of tumors, local recurrences, and survival ratio were assessed. Vitamin D receptor B genotype frequencies in the patient group (P > 0.05) were as follows: B/b, 43 (77%); B/B, 13 (23%). In conclusion, the vitamin D receptor gene B allele does not seem to be related to local recurrence and distant metastasis of invasive ductal cancer of the breast.
