Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the effectiveness of conservative techniques for placenta accreta spectrum to reduce maternal mortality and morbidity

Description:

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) represents the spectrum of clinical conditions when part or whole of the placenta becomes abnormally adherent or invades the myometrium . Over the last 40 years, caesarean delivery rates around the world have risen from less than 10% to over 30%, and almost simultaneously a 10-fold increase in the incidence of PAS . PAS is one of the most dangerous conditions of the pregnancy as it is significantly associated with maternal morbidity and mortality .

Ultrasound imaging is the most commonly used technique to diagnose PAS disorders prenatally. There is also wide variation globally on the management of PAS disorders, with some centres opting for a radical approach, whereas others have proposed a range of conservative approaches .

The conservative approaches include one-step conservative surgery, leaving the placenta in situ, the Triple-P procedure, and transverse B-Lynch suture . Recently, Women's health hospital has adopted a new approach for conservative management of most cases of PAS, including wedge resection of the myometrium over the adherent part of the placenta, or a staged-approach following delivery of the fetus starting with meticulous dissection of the urinary bladder form the lower uterine segment, then bilateral uterine artery ligation at a level below the apparent placenta-myometrial bulge, followed by removal of the placenta, after which a catheter is inserted in the cervix and the placental pouch is closed .

Intervention

Procedure:
• conservative tecchniques in management of PAS
Meticulous complete dissection of the urinary bladder from the lower uterine segment. Transverse uterine incision above the visible vascular bulge if visible in cases with anterior PAS, otherwise a transverse lower uterine segment incision is performed in the same site of previous CS scar. Delivery of the baby, clamping of the cord and administration IV 10 IU oxytocin. Bilateral uterine artery ligation at one or two levels below the lowermost part of the placenta. Removal of the separable part of the placenta from above downwards, until the adherent part is encountered. A decision is taken to either resect a wedge of the myometrium above the adherent placenta (in case the adherent area is small and anterior), or removing all the adherent placenta then inserting a rubber or plastic catheter inside the cervical canal then identifying and closing the placental pouch. Care is given to rapidly perform this step to decrease the blood loss after removing the placenta
