Abstract: We replicate a computation of Boyer and Lines [BL90]
concerning closed orientable 3-manifolds, exhibiting infinitely many
prime integral homology lens spaces, M, such that M is obtained by p/q
Dehn surgery along a knot in an integral homology sphere, but M cannot
be obtained by such a surgery along any knot in the 3-sphere. We then demonstrate additional families of such spaces.
