ICSI Outcome in Infertile Couples with Different Causes of Infertility: A Cross-Sectional Study

Maternal outcome after conservative treatment of placenta accreta.

OBJECTIVE To estimate maternal outcome after conservative management of placenta accreta. METHODS This retrospective multicenter study sought to include all women treated conservatively for placenta accreta in tertiary university hospital centers in France from 1993 to 2007. Conservative management was defined by the obstetrician's decision to leave the placenta in situ, partially or totally,...

Placenta accreta: spectrum of US and MR imaging findings.

Placenta accreta (PA) encompasses various types of abnormal placentation in which chorionic villi attach directly to or invade the myometrium.

Its prevalence has risen tenfold in the United States over the past 50 years, primarily due to the increasing percentage...

Diagnosis of this condition with high-resolution imaging investigations performed during the antenatal period facilitates discussion of management plans with other clinical disciplines (eg interventional radiologists), the patient, and her family. Three ...
