Introduction: Placenta accreta syndrome is a significant cause of maternal mortality and morbidity. Therefore, a multidiscipline approach is essential to overcome this life-threatening disorder for the mother and fetus.

Presentation Of Case: A 32-year-old women gravida 3 parity 2, 34 weeks gestation come due to recurrent antepartum haemorrhage. She had twice prior caesarean section. Ultrasound assessment suggests total placenta previa and elevating suspicion to placenta accreta. However, intraoperatively its sign is unavailable. Although we have done subtotal hysterectomy, massive bleeding still occurring. Therefore, we present management of unexpected placenta percreta.

Discussion: Management of unexpected placenta percreta involves prenatal diagnosis, haemoglobin optimization, surgical management anticipating haemorrhage, dedicated maternal ICU, blood bank providing massive transfusion and blood component.

Conclusion: Close monitoring is important in catastrophe management of Placenta Accreta Syndrome.

An adherent placenta is a life-threatening condition that impairs the mother's life owing to hemorrhagic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation. Profound hemorrhage resulting from placental abruption is often managed using hysterectomy to preserve the mother's life, although the consequent loss of fertility can be devastating, particularly in younger women. Thus, strategies that facilitate fertility preservation while effectively controlling hemorrhage should be considered viable alternatives.

Placenta percreta is a rare form of disorder found in the spectrum of placenta accreta and represents a considerable cause of maternal complications with an increase in mortality. The radiologist's role is essential due to the support of images acquired by magnetic resonance imaging, given their high sensitivity and specificity to predict the degree of placental invasion in substitution or accompaniment of the ultrasound study between 28 and 32 weeks of gestation. We present the case of a 29-year-old patient who was in her third pregnancy with a history of two cesarean sections at the ISSSTE Regional Hospital in Monterrey, Nuevo León.

Objectives: To develop and validate a nomogram to predict severe postpartum hemorrhage following cesarean delivery.

Methods: This is a two-center retrospective cohort study. Cesarean delivery patients from the First Affiliate Hospital of Jinan University were divided into a development cohort (n = 11 137) and an internal validation cohort (n = 4739).

Background: Cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum disorder may be associated with severe hemorrhage because of placental invasion of the myometrium and the uterovesical space or parametrium. It leads to serious complications, such as massive hemorrhage requiring massive transfusion, coagulopathy, bladder and ureteric injuries, need for intensive care unit admission and prolonged hospital stay. To reduce the complications of cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum disorder, ongoing efforts are being made to develop different surgical approaches.
