Abstract
This paper reports a case of successful CPR performed in a female pati ent in the prone position during the excision of a cerebellar meningio ma. It was realised by means of an external, posterior thoracic compre ssion below the left shoulder-blade, without any anterior compression as described in two previous reports.
