Placenta Accreta
Conditions
Brief summary
The worldwide incidence of placenta accreta spectrum is increasing, following the trend of rising caesarean delivery. It is an heterogeneous condition associated with a high maternal morbidity and mortality rate (Jauniaux et al., 2018). caesarean hysterectomy is considered the gold standard for the treatment of placenta accreta. Also this radical approach is associated with high rates of severe maternal morbidity as hemorrhage and insult to surrounding organs during surgery (Hoffman et al., 2010). Surgeons should be able to dissect the bladder safely and confidently through minimally invasive techniques, to avoid surgical injury, it is important to use anatomic landmarks, minimize the use of cauterization (Farhat and Casale, 2018). All centers are encouraged to develop guidelines to manage the potential urologic complications of these cases tailored to their resources (Taneja and Shah, 2017). This study aims to evaluate the timing of bladder dissection in caesarean section in patient with placenta accreta spectrum.
Detailed description
Objective: Try to provide preliminary data to judge between two different approaches during caesarean section for morbidly adherent placenta, that's are bladder dissection before and after uterine incision as regard operative time, blood loss, and incidence of urological injuries. Research Question: \- Does bladder dissection after uterine incision in caesarean sections with PAS avoids bladder injuries compared to bladder dissection before uterine incision and does it affects operative time and blood loss. Research hypothesis: * Null Hypothesis (H₀): There is no significant difference in performing bladder dissection prior nor after uterine incision in caesarean sections with PAS * Alternative Hypothesis (H₁):. bladder dissection before uterine incision in caesarean sections with PAS has superior outcomes compared to bladder dissection after uterine incision.
Interventions
PROCEDUREbladder dissection in placenta accreta spectrum
All caesarean sections will be performed by a surgeon who has experience in performing caesarean hysterectomy in both groups. * Scrubbing the abdomen as usual. * Subumblical midline skin incision versus Pfannenstiel incision will be chosen according to site of the placenta and previous surgeries. * In group A careful bladder dissection will be done before uterine incision with ensuring hemostasis, uterine incision will be done above the placenta, after delivering the baby awaiting for placental separation if not proceeding for caesarean hysterectomy. * In group B uterine incision will be done above the placenta and after delivering the baby awaiting for placental separation if not proceeding to caesarean hysterectomy and dissecting bladder just before clamping uterine artery.
