Placenta Percreta Resulting in Incomplete Spontaneous Abortion in First Trimester

Placenta percreta is a rare complication potentially fatal to fetus and the mother. We present here a 41-year-old female patient who underwent curettage for incomplete abortion at 6(th) week of pregnancy. She had persistent vaginal bleeding for 2 months after the curettage, for which she was treated with hysterectomy. Preoperative ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) made the di...

Placenta Percreta in First Trimester after Multiple Rounds of Failed Medical Management for a Missed Abortion

Background The detection of a morbidly adherent placenta (MAP) in the first trimester is rare. Risk factors such as multiparity, advanced maternal age, prior cesarean delivery, prior myomectomy, placenta previa, or previous uterine evacuation place patients at a higher risk for having abnormal placental implantation. If these patients have a first trimester missed abortion and fail medical mana...

Patient preferences for management of first-trimester incomplete spontaneous abortion.

BACKGROUND Approximately 15% of clinically recognized pregnancies end in miscarriage. The probabilities for successful outcome between expectant treatment and dilatation and curettage for management of many first-trimester incomplete spontaneous abortions are comparable. The goal of this study was to assess patient preferences for expectant treatment compared with dilatation and curettage, and ...

Immunopathological Aspects of Decidual Tissues in Women with First-Trimester Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion

Background/objective: Studies of the decidual leukocyte populations in women suffering from spontaneous early pregnancy loss may provide insight into immunpathological aspects and even cast light on the etiology of recurrent spontaneous abortion.Methods: In order to clarify the immunological role of endometrial leukocytes in repetitive abortion of unknown etiology, a comparative analysis of phe...

Hemoperitoneum Caused by Placenta Percreta in the Third Trimester of Pregnancy

The placental adhesive disorders such as placenta accreta and placenta percreta are the rare causes of serious obstetric hemorrhages. They are associated with high maternal morbidity and mortality. Placenta percreta is usually diagnosed in the third trimester of pregnancy as a massive postpartum hemorrhage when an attempt to remove the placenta reveals lack of a cleavage plane. Here we report a...
