| Abstract | ||||
| Background: Morbidly adherent placenta (MAP) defines the abnormal adherence of the placenta to the underlying uterine wall. It has a rising incidence world-wide. The risk of placental abnormalities increases in the presence of uterine scars due to cesarean delivery or gynecologic procedures. It may lead to massive obstetric hemorrhage resulting in serious complications such as DIC, transfusion related complications. Aim: Evaluation of protocol of management of patients with morbidly adherent placenta at Maternity Zagazig University Hospital and its effect on pregnancy outcome to find the best method of management to decrease associated morbidity and mortality. Patients and methods: This cohort study conducted on 120 patients diagnosed as having morbidly adherent placenta and were admitted to Zagazig University Hospitals. Results: In our study there were 48 cases (40%) managed by CS only and 72 cases (60%) managed by hysterectomy. Conclusion: well-planned caesarean hysterectomy with placenta left in situ adopting multidisciplinary approach is the recommended management option for MAP. | ||||
