Post Partum Hemorrhage
Conditions
Brief summary
Placenta accreta is an obstetrical complication where the placenta becomes firmly adherent to the uterine wall. Placenta accreta can lead to considerable maternal morbidity and mortality due to hemorrhage, infection, or other surgical complications such as those resulting from hysterectomy. Retained placenta accreta is usually a rare condition, but its prevalence is increasing due to the rise in the rate of deliveries by Cesarean section. Placenta accreta is a potentially life-threatening obstetric condition that requires a multidisciplinary approach to management. The incidence of placenta accreta has increased and seems to parallel the increasing cesarean delivery rate. Women at greatest risk of placenta accreta are those who have myometrial damage caused by a previous cesarean delivery with either an anterior or posterior placenta previa overlying the uterine scar. Diagnosis of placenta accreta before delivery allows multidisciplinary planning in an attempt to minimize potential maternal or neonatal morbidity and mortality.
