Histological examination identified placenta increta. Conclusion: In our community, the diagnosis and treatment of placenta accrete in early pregnancy are so crucial and must be taken seriously with considering the fact that the number of repeated cesarean section is high and placenta accreta is one of the most important complication of this method.
