Placenta accreta post miscarriage

Discussion:

Placenta accreta is usually associated with a lower uterine segment cesarian section (LUSCS) scar, and the history of bleeding post-delivery or D&C is typical together with difficulty in removing the placenta. Accreta indicates that infiltration of placental tissue into the myometrial wall is minimal whereas percreta indicates full thickness infiltration and is a very serious condition with potentially dire circumstances of uncontrollable bleeding.
