Management of placenta percreta. A case report

The placenta accreta designates an abnormality of the placental insertion characterized, on the anatomopathological level, by an absence of deciduous deciduous between the placenta and the myometrium. This insertion anomaly may interest all or only part of the placenta. We distinguish within this terminology the terms of - placenta accreta when the placenta is simply attached to the Myometrium. - placenta increta when the placenta invades the myometrium. - placenta percreta when the placenta enters the serosa uterine, or even the neighboring organs (bladder, peritoneum, etc.) [1]. Placentas accretas are a high-risk situation for severe postpartum hemorrhage and its inherent complications such as disseminated intravascular coagulation, hemostasis hysterectomy, surgical wounds to the ureters, bladder, multiple organ failure, or even maternal death, particularly in the case of placenta percreta [2,3]. Risk factors for placenta percreta include a history of cesarean, uterine curettage or manual removal of placenta, presence of placenta previa, endometriosis, high parity and advanced maternal age [4]. We report the case of a 30-year-old woman, IIGIIP, who had a previous cesarean section during her first pregnancy and who had a placenta percreta and who underwent hysterectomy without cystectomy and without ligation of the hypogastric arteries
