Morbidly adherent placenta is a grave complication of pregnancy referring to a pathological adherence of placenta to uterine wall with a reported incidence of 1:2500 deliveries. Women with previous two caesarean sections and placenta previa are at greater risk and also those with previous damage to uterine wall.
