Abstract
Introduction: 
 Placenta previa and morbidly adherent placenta cause significant maternal morbidity and mortality from postpartum hemorrhage. Intra-aortic balloon occlusion has been shown to reduce intraoperative hemorrhage effectively.
 Cases Presentation
 We reported four cases of women who underwent cesarean section and hysterectomy with IABO. All four were multigravida, gestational age range was 37-39 weeks, MAP score range 6-8. Ultrasound examination showed placenta accreta. After the cesarean section and hysterectomy procedure with IABO, the bleeding was 600-800 cc.
 Conclusions
 Intra-Aortic Ballooning Occlusion is an effective method to reduce bleeding complications during and after cesarean section in pregnancies with placenta accreta.
