ABSTRACT
Osteoid osteoma of the thoracic spine is very rare. We have experienced a case of osteoid osteoma in the lamina of the 10 th thoracic vertebra which compressed spinal cord and resulted in paraparesis. Plain spine X-rays revealed hypertrophy of T 10 lamina. Myelogram showed complete blockage of dye column, extradural type, at the T 10 level. Total laminectomies including the pathological lesion resulted in excellent recovery.
