Placental Migration-Rpt USG later at 32-34 wks
Why to repeat scan?
• Placental migration occurs during the second and
third trimesters, owing to the development of the
lower uterine segment, which grows 10 fold from
0.5cm to 5 cm
• Retrospective review of 714 women with placenta
praevia found that, even with a marginal ‘praevia’
at 20–23 weeks , the chance of persistence of the
placenta praevia requiring abdominal delivery was
11% with no uterine scar and 50% with a previous
caesarean section.

Abnormal implantation
Placenta Accreta/Increta/Percreta
• Accreta: villi attatched to myometrium
(85%)
• Increta: villi invading the myometrium
(15%)
• Percreta: villi beneath or through the uterine
serosa (5%)
Abnormal implantation
Risk factors
• Early 30s
• Parity (2 or 3 prior births)
• Prior C/S,hysterotomy,myomectomy
• H/O of D& C
• Prior manual placental removal
• Prior retained placenta
• Infection
Placenta accreta
In a patient with a previous cesarean
section and a placenta previa:
• Postpartum Accreta
• 39 – 64%
• 2600 ml (without previa)
• 4700 ml (with previa)
Placenta Accreta
Conservative management
• Leaving the placenta in place
• Localized resection and repair
• Oversewing a defect (esp percreta)
• Blunt disection/curretage
Definite management
-Hysterectomy
Management of placenta previa
Antenatal management
• Women with major placenta praevia who
have previously bled should be admitted
and managed as inpatients from 34 weeks
of gestation.
• Those with major placenta praevia who
remain asymptomatic, having never bled,
require careful counselling before
contemplating outpatient care.
• Any home-based care requires close
proximity with the hospital, the constant
presence of a companion and full informed
consent from the woman.
Domicillary management
• Immediate delivery
• Severe bleeding with maternal shock
• Fetal distress
• Fetal death
• Expectant management
• Bleeding has stopped
• Mild bleeding with stable vitals
• No evidence of fetal distress
Management options
Expectant management
Macafee 1945
• Remains in hospital
• Fully equipped & fully staffed from time of
initial diagnosis to delivery.
• Facilities for immediate caesarean section
and blood transfusion
• Identify & correct anemia (Maintain Hb >10
gm%)
Expectant management
• Depends on:
• Stage of pregnancy- <37wks
• Extent of haemorrhage-vital stable
• Outpatient management
• Low lying placenta – repeat U/S at 32-34 wk
• Asymtomatic major praevia – admit at 36wk
Warning
Avoid coitus
Avoid travel & being in crowded places
Communication & transport within 30min
Immediate delivery
• Indications:
• Severe & continuous bleeding which has
caused or likely to cause haemodynamic
changes
Immediate operative delivery
• Continuing bleeding, neither profuse nor life-
threatening, more than 36wk
• Delivery is preferred
• Mode of delivery will depends on type of
praevia
• EUA in double setting if diagnosis
unconfirmed
Anaesthesia during cesarean
• The choice of anaesthetic technique for caesarean
section for placenta praevia must be made by the
anaesthetist, in consultation with the obstetrician
and mother, but there is increasing evidence to
support the safety of regional blockade.
• Any woman going to theatre with known placenta
praevia should be delivered by the most
experienced obstetrician and anaesthetist on duty.
As a minimum requirement during a planned
procedure, a consultant obstetrician and
anaesthetist should be present within the delivery
suite.
