Abstract
A 22-year-old gravida II, para I, with a twin pregnancy was diagnosed with placenta praevia totalis et percreta in 25 GW. After consideration of various modes of delivery a C-section was performed with retention of the placenta percreta in situ when vaginal bleeding occured in 28 GW. Following 8 dosages of methotrexate given on an outpatient basis, the patient suddenly developed acute renal failure necessitating dialysis. This was due to a bilateral renal cortical necrosis after disseminated intravasal coagulation based on a massive accumulation of trophoblastic tissue.
