Uterine adenosarcoma is a rare variant of mixed Mullerian tumors comprised of neoplastic glands with the benign appearance and sarcomatous stroma. The epithelium most often consists of endometrium- like cells, while the sarcomatous component usually shows low-grade homologous uterine sarcoma.

The main contributing factor is a scarred uterus, often from a previous cesarean delivery, myomectomy, or uterine instrumentation. The occurrence of PAS in an unscarred uterus is extremely rare, with only anecdotal cases reported so far in the literature.

Aims: To determine the effectiveness of tranexamic acid (TXA) in reducing vaginal bleeding, extending pregnancy duration, and enhancing perinatal outcomes in pregnant women with placenta previa.
Methods: A multicenter, randomized, double-blind clinical trial was conducted at three maternity teaching hospitals in Iraq's Kurdistan region, Azadi Hospital in the north of Iraq, and Al-Azhar University Hospital in Egypt on 146 women with placenta previa. Participants were randomly assigned to two interventional groups in a 1:1 ratio to receive either TXA or Dextrose 5% water (D5W).
