Abstract

Cesarean section for placenta previa accreta spectrum carries a significant risk of massive hemorrhage. Hence, it is necessary to understand the various hemostatic procedures, damage control surgery and resuscitation for massive hemorrhage, and systemic management against hypovolemic shock and coagulopathy. In cases of placenta previa with previous cesarean section, the operation should be performed in a tertiary medical facility with well-trained staff and blood availability for transfusion. Preoperative placement of an intra-arterial balloon occlusion catheter in the common iliac artery or aorta is useful for preventing massive hemorrhage.
