Abstract

Six cases of osteoid osteoma were studied histologically using the Gross technique. When the nidus is located centrally, it is reached by amyelinic fibers accompanying the vessel branches or as independent fibers. The pain is generally considered to reflect changes in vessel pressure and it could also be due to direct irritation of the nerve fibers included in or near the calcification focus.
