Using a dynamical stellar code, detailed evolutionary models have been computed that follow the evolution and nucleosynthesis of massive stars from the pre-MS (accretion phase) up to the onset of O-burning. Various instabilities occur during the evolution. As an example, the evolution of a star with maximum mass 120 Mʘ is discussed.
