Two cases of benign osteoblastoma of the spine are reported.
This rare tumour has a predilection for the spine but can be cured by partial resection.
Its importance lies in the difficulties of diagnosis and the liability it has to produce neurological, particularly spinal cord damage.
We should like to thank Mr. J. K. Stanger and Mr. P. G. Epps for permission to report these cases, Dr. H. A. Sissons and Dr. W. F. Coulson for the histology reports, and Mr. J. Hankinson who performed the laminectomy on Case 2 .
