Hysterectomy after a failed conservative management of placenta increta: A case report.

Abstract

Introduction and importanceConservative management of placenta accreta is a recent approach demarcated by leaving the placenta in situ. It can be applied either after a failed attempt to remove the placenta manually or without previous attempts.Case presentationIn this case, we present a 31-years-old woman who was diagnosed with placenta increta during the cesarean section. Surgeons tried to remove the placenta manually, but they have failed and left the placenta in situ to avoid performing a hysterectomy on the patient.Case presentationInappropriate follow-up clinically ultrasound results in severe bleeding and subsequent emergent urges to conduct a hysterectomy to save the patient's life.ConclusionConservative management requires a close follow-up using ultrasonography to avoid any fatal complications.
