| The primary purpose of the vessels typically found in Haversian canals is to provide a blood supply to bone cells, which are also known as osteocytes. |
| Every part of a Haversian system is supplied with nutrient fluids derived from the vessels in the Haversian canal and distributed through the canaliculi and lacunae. |
| In the rare case of a biopsied bone island, the histology has shown compact lamellar bone with prominent Haversian canals. |
| The compact bone around it and in the diaphysis is formed by a series of Haversian systems. |
| It consists of a network of lamellae parallel to each other mostly known as Haversian canals. |
| Haversian structures acquired characteristic typical to young bones. |
