Use of Maternal Serum Alpha-Fetoprotein Measurment in the Diagnosis of Placental Accretion Compared with 2D and 3D Ultrasound

Background: The accretion of the placenta has now been identified as a major cause maternal morbidity and mortality.The condition is defined adhering abnormally to uterus. Aim study: goal this study was assess effectiveness grayscale ultrasonography 3D power Doppler in detecting accreta vs serum alpha-fetoprotein levels women who had previous caesarean sections. Patients Methods: After 36 weeks pregnancy, 100 patients with sections were classified into two groups: cases previa controls upper segment implanted placenta. Ultrasound used on each group. Maternal are determined using greyscale ultrasound Doppler. status assessed intra-operatively by surgeon. Results: At time Cesarean delivery, 30 its variations (including increta percreta). When we compared MS-AFP, discovered that MS-AFP highest sensitivity, at 88.9%, followed 77.8% 66.7 percent. However, specificity 33.3 percent, least specific, 83.3 Conclusion: could be conjunction 2D diagnose prenatal period. It also screening test for diagnosis.
