Brueger and Oppenheimer (14) described bone formation inthe plantar and peroneal vessels. Satterlee (15) reports a very interesting case of bone forma-tion in the aorta of a cockatoo. The whole of the vessel wasapparently occupied by bone formation with true bone absorption as well as bone formation was going on as evi-denced by some typical Howships lacunae. There was muchcalcium deposited in the media. Harvey (16), while studying experimental arteric sclerosisfollowing local irritation, observed in one specimen a formationof true bone in the Fig. 3. Bone and marrow formation. Hematoxylin and eosin x The following case is of especial interest on account of thecomplete thrombotic occlusion of the lower portion of the abdomi-nal aorta, as well as the formation of true bone with bone marrowin the aortic wall at the seat of the thrombus.
