Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Universitary Hospital Ramón y Cajal, Alcalá de Henares University, 3428034 Madrid, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates ultrasound features of adnexal masses that are challenging to classify as benign or malignant, using various ultrasound scoring systems.
- A total of 133 adnexal masses were analyzed, revealing that 66.2% were benign and 33.8% malignant, with ultrasound assessments correctly identifying malignant lesions in all cases.
- Some borderline tumors and specific malignant types were not consistently detected across ultrasound scores, leading to misclassification of several benign lesions due to certain features like solid areas or papillae.

Department of General Surgery, Valme Universitary Hospital, Seville, Spain.
Malignant pheochromocytoma is a rare disease and surgical resection is the only curative treatment. There are no definitive histological or cytological criteria of malignancy, as it is impossible to determine this condition in the absence of advanced locoregional disease or metastases. We report a case of a patient with a giant retroperitoneal tumour, the second largest to be published, which was diagnosed as a malignant pheochromocytoma; it was treated with surgery.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation with simultaneous chest and abdominal compression: comparative study in humans.
Resuscitation
August 1990
Department of Intensive Medicine, Virgen de Valme Universitary Hospital, Seville, Spain.
To assess the efficacy of the simultaneous application of chest and abdominal compression (SCAC) in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), we performed a prospective study on 18 patients shortly after cardiac arrest. Three different CPR procedures were carried out consecutively: (1) Standard CPR; (2) CPR interposed with abdominal compression (IAC-CPR); and (3) SCAC-CPR. Standard CPR was repeated at the end of each sequence.
