  • - Out of over 520,000 deliveries, 396 women met the criteria, with 108 diagnosed with PAS, showing a significant correlation between the number of prior cesareans and the rate of PAS, which could range from 5% to 63%.
  • - Key risk factors for developing PAS included having a BMI of 30 or higher, previous uterine surgeries, past postpartum hemorrhage, multiple cesarean deliveries, and presence of placenta previa, indicating that risk stratification is
