Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Placenta increta is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication of pregnancy. The initial symptoms are generally vaginal bleeding during difficult placental removal in the third trimester. However, placenta increta may complicate first- and early second-trimester pregnancy loss. The diagnosis may be difficult during early pregnancy because the lesion is difficult to identify. Herein is reported the case of a woman with a diagnosis of placenta increta that caused prolonged bleeding after a late first-trimester abortion and manifested as an unusual lower segment uterine mass. Management included laparoscopy, and the placental tissue was completely removed successfully and uneventfully. |
