We answer a question posed by Warfield in 1975: the Krull-Schmidt Theorem does not hold for serial modules, as we show via an example. Nevertheless we prove a weak form of the Krull-Schmidt Theorem for serial modules (Theorem 1.9).

Abstract
We answer a question posed by Warfield in 1975: the Krull-Schmidt Theorem does not hold for serial modules, as we show via an example. Nevertheless we prove a weak form of the Krull-Schmidt Theorem for serial modules (Theorem 1.9). And we show that the Grothendieck group of the class of serial modules of finite Goldie dimension over a fixed ring R is a free abelian group. © 1996 American Mathematical Society.
