Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aims to compare prophylactic common iliac artery (CIA) temporary clamping and preoperative balloon occlusion for managing placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders. STUDY DESIGN Between January 2019 and June 2020, 46 patients with PAS disorders were included. Of them, 26 patients were offered CIA balloon occlusion (Group A), while temporary CIA clamping was done for the other 20 patients (Group B). Primary outcomes were procedure-related complications, and secondary outcomes included intraoperative and postoperative complications, reoperation rates, total procedure time, blood loss, and amount of blood transfusion. RESULTS Blood loss was statistically non-significant higher in group B than in group A (p-value = 0.143). Only one patient in group A and three in group B needed reoperation. The bleeding continued for a mean of 1.6 days in group A and 1.7 days in group B, with non-significant statistical differences between both groups p value = 0.71. Nine patients in group A (34.6%) and four in group B (20%) required ICU admission. The mean Apgar score was 7 and 6.6 in babies of group A and group B patients, respectively. The median number of allogeneic blood transfusions performed was two in patients in group A and 1 in group B (p-value = 0.001). CONCLUSION Both techniques offer good choices for patients with PAS to decrease mortality and morbidity rates. The selection of a better technique depends on institutional references and physicians' experience.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy of internal iliac artery intraoperative vascular clamp temporary occlusion in the treatment of abnormally invasive placenta. METHOD This retrospective study enrolled 153 patients diagnosed with abnormally invasive placenta between January 2018 and December 2021. The patients were divided into a study group (n = 88, undergoing cesarean section followed by internal iliac artery vascular clamp temporary occlusion) and a control group (n = 65, receiving routine cesarean section). The general situation, intraoperative conditions, postoperative complications, and neonatal outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The hysterectomy rate in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group. However, there were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion, postoperative intensive care unit transfer rate, or neonatal outcome between the groups. Further subgrouping showed that in patients with placenta increta, the hysterectomy rate and intraoperative bleeding amount were significantly lower in the occlusion group. Nevertheless, these advantages were not significantly different between the groups in patients with placenta percreta. CONCLUSION Vascular clamp temporary occlusion of internal iliac artery is an effective method for controlling hemorrhage and decreasing the incidence of hysterectomy in patients with placenta increta. For patients with placenta percreta, the benefit is limited.

Abstract
We aimed to generate a model to predict the risk of a woman having normal, abnormally adherent (AAP) or abnormally invasive placentation (AIP) based on the presence of recently codified ultrasound (US) markers and disease definitions of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS). We recruited women with anterior low-lying placenta or placenta previa and a history of previous caesarean delivery to a prospective cohort study. US markers of abnormal placentation were recorded on a standardized pro forma. The presence and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics grade of PAS was evaluated clinically and histologically at delivery. Markers demonstrating a predictive relationship to PAS were incorporated into a logistic regression model. A total of 106 women were included, of whom 42 (40%) were normal, 24 (23%) had AAP and 40 (38%) had AIP. A model including just four key variables (loss of clear zone, abnormal placental lacunae, placental bulge and bladder wall interruption) was shown to reliably predict presence and severity of PAS, with an optimism-corrected C-index of 0.901. A simple model incorporating four US markers can predict likelihood and severity of PAS with high accuracy. This is the first time this has been demonstrated using the recently codified definitions of the US signs and disease definitions. Further work will see our model applied prospectively to a large patient cohort, ideally through a smartphone-based application, for external validation.

Curative effect of cervical lifting suture combined with the improved Hayman suture in pernicious placenta previa under noninterventional conditions: A retrospective cohort study. Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2023.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To propose a novel operative strategy involving cervical lifting suture (CLS) in conjunction with the improved Hayman suture (CLS-Hayman) to apply in the cesarean section of pernicious placenta previa (PPP) under noninterventional conditions and evaluate the curative effect of the CLS-Hayman operation by comparing with conventional CLS. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 119 pregnant women diagnosed with PPP, including 50 cases in the CLS-Hayman group and 69 cases in the CLS group. The authors used different statistical methods to compare intraoperative bleeding, 24-h postpartum bleeding, postoperative complication rates, and uterine involution between the two groups under noninterventional conditions. RESULTS The median intraoperative blood loss was 800 mL in the CLS-Hayman group versus 1000 mL in the CLS group. The amount of 24-h postpartum bleeding in the CLS-Hayman group was lower than that in the CLS group. The complication rates in the two groups were 12% and 27.5%, respectively (P = 0.04). B-ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging data showed that the uterine involution was better in the CLS-Hayman group. CONCLUSION The CLS-Hayman suture achieves the desired intraoperative hemostasis and also stands out for its better prevention of postpartum hemorrhage, better prognosis at follow-up, and lower complication rates.

Abstract
Background The distinguished Triple-P procedure has been reported as a conservative surgical alternative to peripartum hysterectomy for placental accreta spectrum (PAS). In this study, we modified the procedure combined with prophylactic abdominal aorta balloon occlusion and/or tourniquet and evaluated the effect and long-term outcomes. Methods This was a retrospective study involving pregnant patients with clinically confirmed severe PAS (including placenta increta and percreta) between January 1st, 2017 and June 30th, 2020 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. A total of 334 pregnant women were recruited in this study. The 142 women that were subjected to modified Triple P Procedure were regarded as the observation group while 194 pregnant women that were treated with other sutures were regarded as the control group. Demographic characteristics, placental accreta spectrum score (PAS score), estimated blood loss (EBL), operative time, blood transfusion rate and volume, neonatal weight, post-operative hospital stays and costs were evaluated. Short-term complications, including fever, hematoma, thrombus, bladder rupture and intensive care unit (ICU) transfer rate, as well as long-term outcomes including breast feeding, menstruation, intrauterine adhesion, and chronic abdominal pain among others were followed up in the outpatient clinic and by phone calls. Results For all cases, EBL was lower in the observation group than in the control group, 1,200 (687–1,812) ml and 1,300 (800–2,500) ml, respectively. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Operative time were statistically significantly shorter in the observation group [99.5 (84.0–120.0) min and 109.0 (83.8–143.0) min, P < 0.05]. Lengths of postoperative hospital stays were 4 (4–7) and 5 (4–7) days in the observation and control group, which was significantly shorter in the observation group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in PAS scores, blood transfusion volume, neonatal weight, fever, hematoma, thrombus, bladder rupture and ICU transfer rates between the two groups. All patients, except one in control group, had preserved uterus. There were no statistically significant differences in short-term and long-term complications between two groups. Conclusion In summary, when combined with tourniquet and/or prophylactic abdominal aorta balloon occlusion, modified Triple-P procedure may be effective in reducing intraoperative blood loss and hysterectomy in patients with placenta increta/percreta. It is a safe and effective surgical alternative to peripartum hysterectomy. However, the complications associated with interventional radiology service should be evaluated furthermore.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate a modified surgical technique aiming to reduce bleeding and preserve fertility in morbidly adherent placenta by cervical tourniquet in cesarean sections. Methods: The cesarean section operations and the cervical ligation approach were performed by a single expert consultant obstetrician. The general demographics and clinical characteristics for all participants were collected and studied. Results: Eleven participants were involved. The uterus was preserved in nine patients, whereas two patients had hysterectomy. The mean blood loss was 1688.8 ml for patients whose uterus was preserved. The mean length of stay was 5.5 days. Conclusion: Cervical ligation is a simple method that can be applied by junior and experienced obstetricians to preserve the uterus. Placenta accreta is the abnormal adhesion of placenta into the uterine wall. It carries a significant risk for hysterectomy, intrapartum and postpartum hemorrhage, and maternal morbidity and mortality. As the preservation of fertility and femininity is desired by many women, numerous methods were adapted to avoid hysterectomy in patients with placenta accreta. In this study, we describe and evaluate a novel technique to preserve the uterus by ligating the cervix with a Foley catheter.

Abstract
Background: Massive bleeding is the main concern for the management of placenta percreta (PP). Intra-abdominal aortic balloon occlusion (IABO) is one method for pelvic devascularization, but the efficacy of IABO is uncertain. This study aims to investigate the outcomes of IABO in PP patients. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of PP cases from six tertiary centers in China between January 2011 and December 2015. PP cases with/without the use of IABO were analyzed. Propensity score matching analysis was performed to reduce the effect of selection bias. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and the rate of hysterectomy, as well as neonatal outcomes, were analyzed. Results: One hundred and thirty-two matched pairs of patients were included in the final analysis. Compared with the control group, maternal outcomes, including PPH (68.9% vs. 87.9%, χ2 = 13.984, P < 0.001), hysterectomy (8.3% vs. 65.2%, χ2 = 91.672, P < 0.001), and repeated surgery (1.5% vs. 12.1%, χ2 = 11.686, P = 0.001) were significantly reduced in the IABO group. For neonatal outcomes, Apgar scores at 1 minute (8.67 ± 1.79 vs. 8.53 ± 1.68, t = −0.638, P = 0.947) and 5 minutes (9.43 ± 1.55 vs. 9.53 ± 1.26, t = 0.566, P = 0.293) were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions: IABO can significantly reduce blood loss, hysterectomies, and repeated surgeries. This procedure has not shown harmful effects on neonatal outcomes.

Abstract
Background: We investigated the role of balloon placement in the abdominal aorta (BPAA) in planned conservative management of placenta previa with placenta increta or percreta and the effects of BPAA on perinatal adverse maternal events. Methods: This retrospective case-control study included women with placenta previa (increta or percreta), who underwent pregnancy termination at the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University between January 2016 and June 2019. Patients were categorized into the BPAA and non-BPAA groups based on the BPAA placement before delivery. The Chi-square and non-parametric rank-sum tests were used for the intergroup comparison of patient characteristics. The propensity score matching algorithm was used to minimize the intergroup differences in clinical characteristics. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors associated with a high risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [area under the curve (AUC)] was used to evaluate the classification of the selected high-risk factors. Results: The study included 260 patients, and 104 patients were identified after propensity score matching. In the post-matched cohort, intraoperative blood loss was significantly lower in the BPAA than in the non-BPAA group (median 1,000 vs. 2,250 ml, P < 0.001). Intraoperative B-Lynch suture was performed in fewer patients in the BPAA (15.4 vs. 34.6%, P = 0.024) than in the non-BPAA group. The packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusion rate was lower in the BPAA group (median 4 vs. 8 units, P < 0.001). Overall, 46 (45.1%) patients developed adverse maternal events; however, the rate of adverse maternal events was lower in the BPAA group (19.6 vs. 80.4%, P < 0.001). No ligation of the ascending branch of the uterine artery (P = 0.034), no BPAA (P < 0.001), intraplacental vascular lacunae (P = 0.046), and cervical hypervascularity (P = 0.001) were associated with a high risk of adverse perinatal maternal events. The AUC of the high-risk factors was 0.89 in the post-matched and 0.76 in the pre-matched cohorts. Conclusion: Planned conservative management using BPAA significantly minimized the intraoperative blood loss, the need for a B-Lynch suture, and PRBC transfusion in patients with severe placenta accreta spectrum and placenta previa.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was aimed to compare clinical outcomes and use of interventions in women with suspected accreta based on the degree of antenatal suspicion. STUDY DESIGN This was a retrospective cohort study of women with suspected accreta from 2007 to 2019. Included patients had one or more imaging studies suggestive of accreta. Cases were classified as "lower risk" if imaging showed possible signs of accreta including mild or superficial myometrial infiltration, an abnormal uterine contour, an abnormal uteroplacental interface, or loss of the retroplacental hypoechoic zone and "higher risk" if there was clear evidence of more than superficial myometrial infiltration, placental tissue extruding beyond the uterine serosa, bridging vessel(s), or placental lacunae with high velocity and/or turbulent flow. The primary study outcome was a composite maternal morbidity including cesarean hysterectomy, transfusion of blood or blood products, unintentional cystotomy, or intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Chi-square, Fisher's exact test, and Mann-Whitney U-test were used for analysis. RESULTS A total of 78 women had a suspected accreta on imaging, 36 with "lower risk" features and 42 with "higher risk" features. There were no differences in baseline maternal demographics. Women in the "higher risk" group were more likely to have a placenta previa (p < 0.01) and preoperative consultation with gynecologic oncology (p = 0.04). There was a significant difference in composite maternal morbidity between patients with "lower risk" and "higher risk" features of accreta on imaging (50 vs. 92.9%, p < 0.01). Median gestational age at planned and actual delivery were earlier in the "higher risk" group (36.6 vs. 34.9 weeks, p < 0.01; 36.0 vs. 34.7 weeks, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Stratification of women with suspected accreta based on imaging corresponded to rates of maternal morbidity and operative complications, and appears to have been used clinically in selecting timing of delivery and interventions. KEY POINTS · Increased morbidity with high risk accreta imaging.. · Interventions correlate with accreta imaging risk.. · Imaging can be used to stratify accreta cases..

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multidisciplinary care of placenta accreta spectrum cases improves pregnancy outcomes, but the specific components of such a multidisciplinary collaboration varies between institutions. As experience with placenta accreta spectrum increases, it is crucial to assess new surgical techniques and protocols to help improve maternal outcomes and to advocate for hospital resources. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess a novel multidisciplinary protocol for the treatment of placenta accreta spectrum that comprises cesarean delivery, multivessel uterine embolization, and hysterectomy in a single procedure within a hybrid operative suite. STUDY DESIGN This was a matched prepost study of placenta accreta spectrum cases managed before (2010-2017) and after implementation of the Placenta Accreta Spectrum Treatment With Intraoperative Multivessel Embolization protocol (2018-2021) at a tertiary medical center. Historical cases were managed with internal iliac artery balloon placement in selected cases with the decision to inflate the balloons intraoperatively at the discretion of the primary surgeon. Intraoperative Embolization cases were compared with historical cases in a 1:2 ratio matched on the basis of placenta accreta spectrum severity and surgical urgency. The primary outcome was a requirement for transfusion with packed red blood cells. Secondary outcomes included estimated surgical blood loss, operative and postoperative complications, procedural time, length of stay, and neonatal outcomes. RESULTS A total of 15 Placenta Accreta Spectrum Treatment With Intraoperative Multivessel Embolization cases and 30 matched historical cases were included in the analysis. There were no demographic differences noted between the groups. A median (interquartile range) of 0 units (0-2 units) of packed red blood cells were transfused in the Intraoperative Embolization group compared with 2 units (0-4.5 units) in the historical group (P=.045); 5 of 15 (33.3%) Intraoperative Embolization cases required blood transfusions compared with 19 of 30 (63.3%) cases in the historical group (P=.11). The estimated blood loss was significantly less in the Intraoperative Embolization group with a median (interquartile range) of 750 mL (450-1050 mL) compared with 1750 mL (1050-2500 mL) in the historical group (P=.003). There were no cases requiring massive transfusion (≥10 red blood cell units in 24 hours) in the Intraoperative Embolization group compared with 5 of 30 (16.7%) cases in the historical group (P=.15). There were no intraoperative deaths from hemorrhagic shock using the Intraoperative Embolization protocol, whereas this occurred in 2 of the historical cases. The mean duration of the interventional radiology procedure was longer in the Intraoperative Embolization group (67.8 vs 34.1 minutes; P=.002). Intensive care unit admission and postpartum length of stay were similar, and surgical and postoperative complications were not significantly different between the groups. The gestational age and neonatal birthweights were similar; however, the neonatal length of stay was longer in the Intraoperative Embolization group (median duration, 32 days vs 15 days; P=.02) with a trend toward low Apgar scores. Incidence of arterial umbilical cord blood pH <7.2 and respiratory distress syndrome and intubation rates were not statistically different between the groups. CONCLUSION A multidisciplinary pathway including a single-surgery protocol with multivessel uterine embolization is associated with a decrease in blood transfusion requirements and estimated blood loss with no increase in operative complications. The Placenta Accreta Spectrum Treatment With Intraoperative Multivessel Embolization protocol provides a definitive surgical method that warrants consideration by other centers specializing in placenta accreta spectrum treatment.

BMC Pregnancy Childbirth 2021; 21:640. [PMID: 34548060 PMCID: PMC8456564 DOI: 10.1186/s12884-021-04103-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 08/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Placenta previa and accreta are serious obstetric conditions that are associated with a high risk of intraoperative massive hemorrhage, the prophylactic intravascular balloon occlusion technique is increasingly used in managing uncontrolled hemorrhage in cesarean section (CS). We aim to examine the clinical effectiveness of prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac artery (PBOIIA) during CS in improving maternal outcomes for patients with placenta previa and accreta. Methods A total of 420 women with placenta previa and accreta who underwent CS from January 2014 to December 2018 were included retrospectively. Patients were divided into balloon group in which patients had PBOIIA (n = 248) and the control group in which patients did not have PBOIIA (n = 172). Meanwhile, we performed a subgroup analysis in whether taking parallel transverse uterine incision (PTUI) surgery. Information on conditions of patients and newborns, perioperative blood indicators, surgical outcomes were collected. Results Median estimated blood loss (mEBL) was 2200 mL in the balloon group and 2150 mL in the control group respectively, there was no significant difference between two-groups comparison (P > 0.05), and the rate of patients with hysterectomy was also has no difference between the two groups (36.3% verus 35.5%, P > 0.05), while there is a significant difference between two groups in the amount of PRBCs transfused [3 (0–31.5) verus 3 (0–39), P <0.05], moreover, the proportion of PRBCS> 8 units in the balloon group is significantly lower than that in control group (11.29% verus 23.26%, P <0.05).. However, the total hospitalization costs (45,624.4 ± 11,061.9 verus 37,523.1 ± 14,662.2, CYN) and surgery costs (19,910.6 ± 2622.6 verus 11,850.5 ± 3146.1, CYN) in balloon group were significantly higher than those in control group (P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis showed PTUI surgery had no significant differences in EBL (P >0.05), but it could significantly decrease hysterectomy rates (P <0.05). Conclusions PBOIIA has no significant effect on reducing intraoperative EBL and hysterectomy rate in patients with placenta previa and accreta. and although it could reduce the intraoperative PRBCs in patients with massive hemorrhage, it significantly increases the financial cost for patients. Therefore, PBOIIA should not be routinely recommended to patients with placenta previa and accreta.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic intraoperative uterine artery embolization (UAE) performed immediately after fetal delivery during planned cesarean section or cesarean hysterectomy in patients with placenta accreta spectrum disorder or placenta previa. METHODS A systematic search was conducted on Ovid MEDLINE and Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases. Studies were selected using the Population/Intervention/Comparison/Outcomes (PICO) strategy. The intraoperative blood loss and the rate of emergent peripartum hysterectomy (EPH) were the primary outcomes, whereas the length of hospital stay and volume of blood transfused were the secondary outcomes. A random-effects model was employed to pool each effect size. The cumulative values of the primary outcomes were calculated using the generic inverse variance method. RESULTS Eleven retrospective cohort studies and five case series were included, recruiting 421 women who underwent prophylactic intraoperative UAE (UAE group) and 374 women who did not (control group). Compared with the control group, the UAE group had significantly reduced intraoperative blood loss (p = 0.020) during cesarean section or cesarean hysterectomy. Furthermore, the EPH rate was also significantly decreased (p = 0.020; cumulative rate: 19.65%), but not the length of hospital stay (p = 0.850) and volume of pRBC transfused (p = 0.140), after cesarean section in the UAE group. The incidence of major complications was low (3.33%), despite two patients with uterine necrosis. CONCLUSION The currently available data provides encouraging evidence that prophylactic intraoperative UAE may contribute to hemorrhage control and fertility preservation in women with abnormal placentation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the evolution and evaluation of protocol-based multidisciplinary quality improvement (QI) in women undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for radiologically suspected and pathologically confirmed placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders. METHODS A single-center, retrospective cohort study was conducted of all patients undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for PAS disorders between March 2009 and June 2018. Two distinct periods were defined to compare outcomes: 2009-2011 (initial period) and 2017-2018 (current period). Primary outcomes included blood loss and administration of blood products. Secondary outcomes included perioperative levels of hemoglobin, adverse events and complications, time to mobilization, and length of hospitalization. RESULTS Among the 105 consecutive patients identified, there were 26 in the initial period and 32 in the current period. With the implementation of all QI care bundles, median estimated surgical blood loss halved from 2000 ml in the initial period to 1000 ml in the current period, and fewer patients required allogenic blood transfusion (61.5% vs 25%). Patients in the current period demonstrated improved postoperative levels of hemoglobin compared to those in the initial period (101 g/L vs 89 g/L) and had a shorter median postoperative hospital stay (3 days vs 5 days). CONCLUSION These results support the implementation of a multifaceted QI and patient care initiative for women with PAS disorders.

The intraoperative use of internal iliac artery balloon catheters in cesarean deliveries for abnormal invasive placentation: A 3-year retrospective cohort review in Doha, Qatar. Qatar Med J 2021; 2021:8. [PMID: 33828954 PMCID: PMC7961153 DOI: 10.5339/qmj.2021.8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Accepted: 09/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Abnormal invasive placentation leads to massive intraoperative hemorrhage and maternal morbidity. This study aimed to assess the impact of the preoperative use of internal iliac artery balloon occlusion (IIABO) catheters in patients who had a cesarean delivery (CD) for invasive placentation, commonly known as the placenta accreta spectrum. Methods: This retrospective cohort study reviewed 67 pregnancies complicated by abnormal invasive placenta and confirmed intraoperatively. Preoperative planned placement of IIABO was performed in 33 women who underwent elective CD. Senior Obstetricians with the necessary expertise performed all CDs. The primary outcome measures were: intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion requirement, duration of surgery and the need for hemostatic measures. Univariate comparison between the groups and regression analysis of the primary outcome and controlling for confounders, were performed. Results: No statistically significant difference was observed between the groups with intraoperative hemorrhage volume of above 3000 mL (unadjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.94 [no-IIABO group as the reference]; p = 0.895) and the median duration of surgery (median 107, interquartile range [IQR] 80–135 vs. median 96, IQR 75–121; p = 0.3508). More than 40% of the IIABO group required intraoperative transfusion of packed red blood cells above six units (14 [42.4%] vs. 10 [29.4%]; p = 0.357]), and 30% required additional postoperative transfusion (10 [30.3%] vs. 8 [23.5%]; p = 0.706]), although not statistically significant. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the difference remained nonsignificant after covariate adjustment (adjusted OR 0.585, p = 0.456). Cesarean hysterectomy was performed in fewer cases (seven [21.1%]) in the IIABO group than in the no-IIABO group (10 [29.4%]), although this difference was not significant (unadjusted OR 0.65, p = 0.442). Conclusions: The placement of IIABO catheters is an invasive procedure, which consumes time and resources. Its value as a means of reducing intraoperative blood loss or preserving the uterus in patients with abnormal placental adherence appears questionable. In this cohort study, there was no statistical difference in blood loss, and the need for other steps to control hemorrhage between women with and without IIABO catheters.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the estimated fetal radiation dose during prophylactic internal iliac arterial occlusion in patients with abnormal placenta and to estimate the risk of radiation induced cancer in child age. METHODS Prophylactic occlusion of the internal iliac arteries during Caesarean section was performed in 42 patients with placenta praevia and/or placenta accreta spectrum. Fogarty embolectomy catheters were used for prophylactic occlusion of the internal iliac arteries. All procedures were performed in the hybrid operating room using Philips Allura Xper FD 20 X-ray system. Low dose X-ray fluoroscopy (7.5 frames per second) was used. The CODE (Conceptus dose estimation) Software was used to estimate the fetal dose and the risk of radiation induced carcinoma. RESULTS Fluoroscopy times required for insertion of Fogarty catheters were 0.5-4.2 min (mean: 1.7 min, median: 1.5 min). The estimated radiation dose to the fetus was 0.26-3.36 mGy (mean: 1.49 mGy, median: 1.25 mGy). The risk of radiation induced cancer in child age was 0.01-0.04% (mean 0.02%, median 0.01%). One patient developed thrombosis of a common femoral artery. CONCLUSION Prophylactic occlusion of the internal iliac arteries is a simple and safe procedure with minimal risk of complications and with a very low estimated radiation dose to the fetus.

Abstract
Patients with placenta previa are at risk for intra- and postpartum massive blood loss as well as increased risk of placenta accreta, a type of abnormal placental implantation. This condition can lead to serious obstetric complications, including maternal mortality and morbidity. The risk factors for previa include prior cesarean section, multiparity, advanced maternal age, prior placenta previa history, prior uterine surgery, and smoking. The prevalence of previa parturients has increased due to the rising rates of cesarean section and advanced maternal age. For these reasons, we need to identify the risk factors for previa and identify adequate management strategies to respond to blood loss during surgery. This review evaluated the diagnosis of placenta previa and placenta accreta and assessed the risk factors for previa-associated bleeding prior to cesarean section. We then presented intraoperative anesthetic management and other interventions to control bleeding in patients with previa expected to experience massive hemorrhage and require transfusion.

Abstract
The incidence of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is increasing and will become more commonly encountered by obstetric anaesthetists in the elective and emergency settings. Significant maternal and neonatal morbidity is associated with these disorders, and hence it is important for anaesthetists to have early involvement in perioperative planning. Major haemorrhage should be anticipated and requires robust perioperative preparation including Patient Blood Management (PBM) and use of intraoperative strategies for haemorrhage management wherever possible. Several institutions have demonstrated good outcomes with regional anaesthesia alone, but the choice of anaesthetic technique requires individualised planning considering patient, anaesthetic and surgical factors. Optimisation of postoperative analgesia needs additional consideration; it is key to good recovery, minimising the impact on quality of life and reducing the risk of persistent post-surgical pain. Further research is required to ascertain the optimal multi-modal analgesic regime including the role of peripheral nerve blockade.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Preoperative prophylactic balloon-assisted occlusion (PBAO) of the internal iliac arteries minimizes blood loss and facilitates surgery performance, through reductions in the rate of uterine perfusion, which allow for better control in hysterectomy performance, with decreased rates of bleeding and surgical complications. We aimed to investigate the maternal and fetal outcomes associated with PBAO use in women with placenta increta or percreta. Material and Methods: The records of 42 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of placenta increta or percreta were retrospectively reviewed. Of 42 patients, 17 patients (40.5%) with placenta increta or percreta underwent cesarean delivery after prophylactic balloon catheter placement in the bilateral internal iliac artery (balloon group). The blood loss volume, transfusion volume, postoperative hemoglobin changes, rates of hysterectomy and hospitalization, and infant Apgar score in this group were compared to those of 25 similar women who underwent cesarean delivery without balloon placement (surgical group). Results: The mean intraoperative blood loss volume in the balloon group (2319 ± 1191 mL, range 1000–4500 mL) was significantly lower than that in the surgical group (4435 ± 1376 mL, range 1500–10,500 mL) (p = 0.037). The mean blood unit volume transfused in the balloon group (2060 ± 1154 mL, range 1200–8000 mL) was significantly lower than that in the surgical group (3840 ± 1464 mL, range 1800–15,200 mL) (p = 0.043). There was no significant difference in the postoperative hemoglobin change, hysterectomy rates, length of hospitalization, or infant Apgar score between the groups. Conclusion: PBAO of the internal iliac artery prior to cesarean delivery in patients with placenta increta or percreta is a safe and minimally invasive technique that reduces the rate of intraoperative blood loss and transfusion requirements.

Abstract
Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders are an increasing health problem in many parts of the world. They are an important risk factor for adverse maternal outcomes related to delivery, with a reported 18-fold increase in maternal morbidity. Profuse haemorrhage after attempting to remove the placenta is the most frequent complication and can lead to major maternal morbidity and ultimately to maternal death. Morbidity can also arise from the multiple procedures required to treat PAS disorders. Intensive care unit admission, mechanical ventilation, infection, and prolonged hospitalization are common in these patients. Long-term complications related to infertility and psychological disturbances can also occur and may have a strong and long-lasting impact on women's health. Antenatal diagnosis allows for appropriate scheduling of delivery and referral to a specialized centre and has been shown to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare surgical outcomes between women undergoing prophylactic internal iliac artery ligation or preoperative placement of balloon-occlusive devices at cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary-care referral center for PAS disorders in Ontario, Canada. Eligible electronic records were reviewed of women undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for PAS disorders between November 2012 and June 2018. Outcomes for the ligation and balloon groups were compared primarily on procedure-related complications and secondarily on total procedure time, bleeding and transfusion metrics, and intraoperative and postoperative complications. RESULTS Of the 79 cases of cesarean hysterectomy, 47 underwent balloon placement and 32 underwent ligation. Baseline characteristics between the groups were similar except for more emergency procedures in the ligation group (37.5% vs 12.8%, P=0.014). The balloon-related complication rate was 5/47 (10.6%), with no reported complications in the ligation group (P=0.077). Procedural time was longer in the balloon group (353 ± 14 vs 227 ± 13 minutes, P<0.001). Estimated blood loss was similar (1874 ± 245 mL vs 1713 ± 181 mL, P=0.590). CONCLUSION Women undergoing prophylactic placement of endovascular balloons at caesarean hysterectomy for PAS disorders had a 10.6% procedure-related complication rate and increased total procedure time, with no decrease in blood loss compared to those undergoing surgical ligation.

The application of prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac artery for the treatment of placenta accreta spectrum with placenta previa: a retrospective case-control study.

Abstract
Background Severe obstetric haemorrhage caused by placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) results in significant maternal morbidity and mortality. The effectiveness of prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac artery in PAS patients remains controversial. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective case-control study to investigate the clinical effectiveness of this treatment. Methods The clinical data of 104 patients with PAS complicated with placenta previa who delivered by caesarean section between January 2016 and January 2019 were collected, and the patients were divided into two groups. The study group (48 cases) underwent internal iliac artery preset balloon occlusion before caesarean section and uterine artery embolisation according to the bleeding status after surgery, while the control group (56 cases) did not undergo internal iliac artery preset balloon occlusion before caesarean section. Results The operation and hospitalisation times in the study group were longer than those in the control group. Additionally, the hysterectomy rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group. No significant differences in blood loss, blood transfusion volume, urinary system injury, postoperative ICU transfer rate, or neonatal scores were identified between the groups. Among the patients without invasive placenta (placenta increta and percreta), blood loss was lower in the study group, and the caesarean hysterectomy rate did not significantly differ between the groups. Among the patients with invasive placenta, blood loss and the caesarean hysterectomy rate did not significantly differ between the groups. The risk of hysterectomy in the study group was related to invasive placenta penetration, a large area of placental invasion, or abnormal vascular filling. One patient in the study group had a thrombus in the left lower extremity artery. Conclusions Balloon occlusion of the internal iliac artery is effective for haemostasis of placenta previa in the absence of invasive placenta. For patients with invasive placenta, especially placenta percreta, a large area of placental invasion or abnormal vascular filling suggests the need for hysterectomy. The risks of the prophylactic use of internal iliac artery balloon occlusion include vascular injury and thrombus formation.

Abstract
Abnormally invasive placenta (AIP) is a potentially severe condition. To date, arterial embolization in women with postpartum hemorrhage due to AIP is the treatment option for which highest degrees of evidence are available. However, other techniques have been tested, including prophylactic catheter placement, balloon occlusion of the iliac arteries and abdominal aorta balloon occlusion. In this systematic review, we provide an overview of the currently reported interventional radiology procedures that are used for the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage due to AIP and suggest recommendations based on current evidences. Owing to a high rate of adverse events, prophylactic occlusion of internal iliac arteries should be used with caution and applied when the endpoint is hysterectomy. On the opposite, when a conservative management is considered to preserve future fertility, uterine artery embolization should be the preferred option as it is associated with a hysterectomy rate of 15.5% compared to 76.5% with prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries and does not result in fetal irradiation. Limited data are available regarding the application of systematic prophylactic embolization and no comparative studies with arterial embolization are available.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether bilateral common iliac artery (CIA) temporary clamping reduces blood loss during cesarean-hysterectomy of placenta percreta cases. STUDY DESIGN A total of 32 women, who underwent cesarean-hysterectomy under bilateral CIA temporary clamping (n = 12) and without any arterial clamping or ligation (control group, n = 20) due to placenta percreta in Gaziantep University Hospital were retrospectively evaluated. The intra- and postoperative outcomes such as blood loss, blood transfusion and complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Age, parity, body-mass-index and gestational-age were similar in the two groups. The estimated blood loss was lower in the temporary clamping of CIA group than the control group (595 ± 172 mL vs 1450 ± 662 mL, P < 0.001). The number of intraoperative packed-red-blood-cells (0.17 ± 0.58 units vs 1.85 ± 1.46 units, P = 0.002) and fresh-frozen-plasma (0.17 ± 0.58 units vs 1.7 ± 1.49 units, P = 0.005) transfusions were lower in the CIA temporary clamping group than the control group. The rate of women, who received blood/blood products were significantly lower in the CIA temporary clamping group compared to the control group (75 % vs 16 %, P = 0.001). Duration of operation was longer in the CIA temporary clamping group (140 ± 38 min vs 90 ± 25 min, p = 0.001). No complication or maternal death was encountered during this study. CONCLUSION Bilateral CIA temporary clamping method reduces the intraoperative blood loss and the amount of intraoperative blood/blood product transfusions during cesarean-hysterectomy due to placenta percreta.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Morbidly adherent placenta, also known as placenta accreta spectrum, is associated with severe maternal morbidity and mortality. Multiple adjunctive procedures have been proposed to improve outcomes, and at many institutions, interventional radiologists will play a role in assisting obstetricians in these cases. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to evaluate the outcomes of women with morbidly adherent placenta who underwent cesarean hysterectomy with aortic balloon occlusion or internal iliac artery balloon occlusion catheters, compared with cesarean hysterectomy with surgical ligation of the iliac arteries, or cesarean hysterectomy without adjunctive procedures. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective review of women with morbidly adherent placenta treated with cesarean hysterectomy was performed at 5 institutions from May 2014 to April 2018. The balloon occlusion group had either prophylactic aortic or iliac balloons placed prior to cesarean hysterectomy. Comparison groups included those who underwent internal iliac artery ligation prior to hysterectomy or a control group if they underwent cesarean hysterectomy without adjuvant procedures. Evaluated outcomes include estimated blood loss, transfusion requirements, intensive care unit admission, and adverse event rates. RESULTS There were 171 women with morbidly adherent placenta included in the study. Twenty-eight had balloon placement prior to cesarean hysterectomy, 18 had intraoperative internal iliac artery ligation, and there were 125 control women who underwent cesarean hysterectomy without any adjunctive procedures. Compared with the women who underwent cesarean hysterectomy without adjunctive procedures, women who underwent aortic or iliac artery balloon occlusion prior to hysterectomy had significantly lower estimated blood loss (30.9% decrease, P < .001), transfusion requirements (76.8% decrease, P < .001), intensive care unit admission rates (0% vs 15.2%, P < .001), and intensive care unit stay lengths (0.0 vs 3.1 days, P < .001). Compared with women who underwent surgical ligation of the internal iliac arteries prior to hysterectomy, women who underwent aortic or iliac artery balloon occlusion prior to cesarean hysterectomy had lower estimated blood loss (54.2% decrease, P < .01), transfusion requirements (90.5% decrease, P < .001), operating room times (40.0% decrease, P < .01), intensive care unit admissions rates (0% vs 77.8%, P < .001), intensive care unit stay lengths (0.0 vs 1.4 days, P < .001), and adverse events (3.6% vs 44.4%, P < .01). CONCLUSION Aortic and iliac artery balloon occlusion are associated with lower estimated blood loss, transfusion requirements, intensive care unit admission rates, and adverse event rates compared with women who underwent internal iliac artery ligation prior to cesarean hysterectomy or women who had no adjunctive interventions prior to cesarean hysterectomy for morbidly adherent placenta.

Abstract
Abnormal invasive placenta (AIP) causes significant maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. With the increasing incidence of cesarean delivery, this condition is dramatically more common in the last 20 years. Advances in grayscale and Doppler ultrasound have facilitated prenatal diagnosis of abnormal placentation to allow the development of multidisciplinary management plans. Outcomes are improved when delivery is accomplished in centers with multidisciplinary expertise and experience in the care of AIP. This article highlights the desired features for developing and managing a multidisciplinary team dedicated to the treatment of AIP in center of excellence.

Abstract
Postpartum hemorrhage is considered to be a serious complication in patients with pernicious placenta. Approaches employing abdominal aortic balloon occlusion to control hemorrhage are extremely effective for such patients. The present study analyzed 9 patients with pernicious placenta previa in a single hospital from June 2016 to November 2017. Prior to cesarean hysterectomy, an abdominal aortic balloon catheter was placed in all patients. The balloon was inflated and evacuated alternately using saline following delivery of the fetal head. The X-ray dose, bleeding volume and complications during the procedure were observed. Balloon catheterization was successfully performed in all 9 patients. The dose of X-rays ranged from 15.8 to 24.5 mGy, with a mean of 19.3±2.7 mGy; the volume of blood loss ranged from 50 to 4,000 ml, with a mean of ~1,800 ml. Uterine artery embolization was successfully performed in 2 cases due to bleeding following the cesarean hysterectomy, and every uterus was retained. Abdominal aortic balloon occlusion can effectively reduce the amount of bleeding during cesarean hysterectomy in patients with pernicious placenta previa. This may serve as technical support for patients in whom retention of the uterus is expected. However, it is necessary to identify any abnormal uterine tissue above the level of the renal artery in order to avoid ineffective balloon occlusion.

Abstract
Placenta accreta spectrum, formerly known as morbidly adherent placenta, refers to the range of pathologic adherence of the placenta, including placenta increta, placenta percreta, and placenta accreta. The most favored hypothesis regarding the etiology of placenta accreta spectrum is that a defect of the endometrial-myometrial interface leads to a failure of normal decidualization in the area of a uterine scar, which allows abnormally deep placental anchoring villi and trophoblast infiltration. Maternal morbidity and mortality can occur because of severe and sometimes life-threatening hemorrhage, which often requires blood transfusion. Although ultrasound evaluation is important, the absence of ultrasound findings does not preclude a diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum; thus, clinical risk factors remain equally important as predictors of placenta accreta spectrum by ultrasound findings. There are several risk factors for placenta accreta spectrum. The most common is a previous cesarean delivery, with the incidence of placenta accreta spectrum increasing with the number of prior cesarean deliveries. Antenatal diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum is highly desirable because outcomes are optimized when delivery occurs at a level III or IV maternal care facility before the onset of labor or bleeding and with avoidance of placental disruption. The most generally accepted approach to placenta accreta spectrum is cesarean hysterectomy with the placenta left in situ after delivery of the fetus (attempts at placental removal are associated with significant risk of hemorrhage). Optimal management involves a standardized approach with a comprehensive multidisciplinary care team accustomed to management of placenta accreta spectrum. In addition, established infrastructure and strong nursing leadership accustomed to managing high-level postpartum hemorrhage should be in place, and access to a blood bank capable of employing massive transfusion protocols should help guide decisions about delivery location.

Abstract
RATIONALE Placenta accreta is the main cause of severe obstetric postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and hysterectomy. Several hemostatic techniques have been performed in patients with placenta accreta to prevent PPH and reserve fertility. Abdominal aorta and pelvic arteries balloon occlusion are the only techniques which could be performed before cesarean section (CS) in patients who want to keep the fetus and reserve fertility. However, abdominal aorta and pelvic arteries balloon occlusion might lead to severe complications such as formation and rupture of pseudoaneurysm, angiorrhexis, etc. PATIENT CONCERNS We report a case diagnosed with pernicious placenta previa (PPP) combined with Rh(D) negative blood type, who was performed with bilateral common iliac arteries (CIA) balloon occlusion during CS. However, on the first day after CS, the patient caught sudden left-side lumbago and backache accompanied with palpitation and shortness of breath. DIAGNOSES Formation and rupture of multiple pseudoaneurysms in left CIA. INTERVENTIONS Covered stent was inserted into the proximal part of the left CIA and the ipsilateral internal iliac artery was embolized by coil to prevent endoleak. OUTCOMES The patient recovered and discharged from hospital in stable condition without other complications 9 days after CS. LESSONS It is of paramount importance that obstetricians and radiologists correctly estimate the appropriate occlusion volume and pressure of pelvic arteries before CS to avoid formation and rupture of a pseudoaneurysm. And if the rupture of a pseudoaneurysm occurred, it should be quickly identified and treated with endovascular intervention.

Abstract
The incidence of morbidly adherent placenta (MAP) has risen 13-fold since the early 1900s and is directly correlated with the rising rate of cesarean delivery. It is important for clinicians to screen all pregnancies for MAP at the time of routine second-trimester ultrasonography. In addition, patients with risk factors (e.g., multiple prior cesarean deliveries) should undergo targeted screening for MAP. Optimal maternal and fetal outcomes for these high-risk pregnancies result from accurate prenatal diagnosis and comprehensive multidisciplinary preparation and delivery between 34 and 36 weeks of gestation. There continue to be large knowledge gaps with respect to the optimal management of this condition especially around diagnosis, obstetric care, timing of delivery, and surgical management. Accordingly, most recommendations are based on expert opinion rather than on high-quality evidence. Prospective clinical trials are needed to address knowledge gaps and to continue to improve outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate efficacy and safety of prophylactic internal iliac occlusion balloon placement before cesarean hysterectomy for invasive placenta. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of patients with invasive placenta treated with and without occlusion balloon placement. Preoperative occlusion balloons were placed in 90 patients; 61 patients were treated without balloon placement (control group). Baseline demographics, including patient age, gestational age at delivery, gravidity, parity, and number of previous cesarean sections, were not significantly different (P > .05). Of the balloon placement group, 56% had placenta percreta compared with 25% in the control group (P < .001), and 83% had placenta previa compared with 66% in the control group (P = .012). RESULTS Median blood loss was 2 L (range, 1.5-2.5 L) in the balloon placement group versus 2.5 L (range, 2-4 L) in the control group (P = .002). Patients with occlusion balloons were transfused a median of 2 U (range, 0-5 U) of packed red blood cells versus 5 U (range, 2-8 U) in patients in the control group (P = .002). In the balloon placement group, 34% had large volume blood loss > 2,500 mL versus 61% in the control group (P = .001), and 21% required blood transfusion > 6 U versus 44% in the control group (P = .002). Eight complications (9%) were attributed to occlusion balloon placement. CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic internal iliac artery occlusion balloon placement reduces operative blood loss and transfusion requirements in patients undergoing hysterectomy for invasive placenta.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the clinical efficacy of prophylactic temporary balloon occlusion of the abdominal aorta in patients with placenta previa accretism during cesarean section. METHODS Twenty-three consecutive patients, prenatally confirmed with placenta previa accretism were retrospectively analyzed in our center from August 2012 to October 2014. All 23 subjects underwent cesarean section with prophylactic balloon occlusion of the abdominal aorta. RESULTS All of the 23 subjects experienced singleton pregnancies leading to the birth of live infants. Of these subjects, the following problems were diagnosed: placenta accrete (n = 10), placenta increte (n = 10), and placenta precrete (n = 3). Mean intraoperative hemorrhage was 1170.0 mL. Fifteen patients received red blood cell transfusion with a mean transfusion volume of 2.3 units. The incidence of hysterectomy was 21.74% (5/23) with blood loss ranging from 2000 to 5000 mL (mean 3360.0 mL). One complication encountered in this retrospective study was lower extremity arterial thrombosis. Eighteen patients were followed-up by telephone to 14 months following discharge, all babies were noted to be healthy. CONCLUSION Prophylactic abdominal aorta balloon occlusion (ABO) was relatively safe in the treatment of patients with placenta previa accretism. This approach could represent a key aspect in a multidisciplinary algorithm in reducing hemorrhage in abnormal placentation.

Abstract
The increasing incidence of morbidly adherent placenta (MAP) is placing women at a higher risk of life-threatening massive hemorrhage. The involvement of interventional radiology to manage this complex condition by performing prophylactic iliac artery balloon occlusion has been reported recently. However, the effectiveness and safety of this technique have not been fully determined. Here we report the case of a 25-year-old woman with placenta increta with preemptive bilateral internal iliac artery balloons who had external iliac artery thrombosis detected by computed tomography angiography (CTA) 72 h post cesarean section. A digital subtraction angiogram (DSA) and intra-arterial thrombolysis were instantly performed followed by supplementary conservative treatments, leading to a desirable resolution of thrombus without sequela. This is the first report of vascular complications with successful interventional thrombolysis in this setting. Our experience suggests that prophylactic iliac artery balloon occlusion should be used cautiously in cases of MAP and consideration given to minimizing vascular complications given the hypercoagulable state of pregnancy.

Abstract
Background Due to the significant morbidity and mortality associated with placenta percreta, alternative management options are needed. Beginning in 2005, our institution implemented a multidisciplinary strategy to patients with suspected placenta percreta. The purpose of this study is to present our current strategy, maternal morbidity and outcomes of patients treated by our approach. Methods From 2005 to 2014, a retrospective cohort study of patients with suspected placenta percreta at an academic tertiary care institution was performed. Treatment modalities included immediate hysterectomy at the time of cesarean section (CHYS), planned delayed hysterectomy (interval hysterectomy 6 weeks after delivery) (DH), and fertility sparing (uterine conservation) (FS). Prognostic factors of maternal morbidity were identified from medical records. Complications directly related to interventional procedures and DH was recorded. Descriptive statistics were utilized. Results Of the 21 patients with suspected placenta percreta, 7 underwent CHYS, 13 underwent DH, and 1 had FS with uterine preservation. Of the 20 cases that underwent hysterectomy, final pathology showed 11 increta, 7 percreta, and 2 inconclusive. 19/20 cases underwent interventional radiology (IR) procedures. Selective embolization was utilized in 14 cases (2/7 CHYS; 12/13 DH). The median time from cesarean section (CS) to DH was 41 [26–68] days. There were no cases of emergent hysterectomy, delayed hemorrhage, or sepsis in the DH group. Both estimated blood loss and number of packed red blood cell transfusions were significantly higher in the CHYS group. 3/21 cases required massive transfusion (2 CHYS, 1 FS) with median total blood product transfusion of 13 units [12–15]. The four IR-related complications occurred in the DH group. Incidence of postoperative complications was similar between both groups. Median hospital length of stay (LOS) after CHYS was 4 days [3–8] compared to DH cohort: 7 days [3–33] after CS and 4 days [1 –10] after DH. The DH cohort had a higher rate of hospital readmission of 54% (7/13) compared to 14% (1/7) CHYS, most commonly due to pain. There were no maternal deaths. Conclusion This multidisciplinary strategy may appear feasible; however, further investigation is warranted to evaluate the effectiveness of alternative approaches to cesarean hysterectomy in cases of morbidly adherent placenta.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To investigate whether abdominal aortic balloon occlusion (ABO) effectively reduces intraoperative hemorrhage in patents with placenta previa increta/increta. METHODS Forty-three women were diagnosed as placenta previa increta/percreta by ultrasound and MRI. These patients' assessments were taken by their chief physician, and they were under necessity of previous cesarean section as confirmed by the committee of experts during consultation. There was no significant difference in disease risk rating between them in whole process. Although our department provided a more appropriate method, 10 of 43 patients chose intraoperative aortic balloon occlusion (IABO). Other 33 patients who refused that suggestion were considered as control group. Fully informed consents were obtained from all patients in this study group. The intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion, rate of hysterectomy and complications of mothers and fetus of IABO group and control group were analyzed. RESULTS The median intraoperative blood loss was 1000 ml in the IABO group compared with 2000 ml in the control group (p < 0.05). The median volume of transfused red blood cells was 1100 ml in the IABO group compared with 2000 ml in the control group (p < 0.05). 33.3% (11/33) patients in the control group had hemorrhagic shock, and one of them suffered from cardiac arrest intraoperatively because of severe bleeding. However, none of these serious events occurred in the IABO group (p < 0.05). The hysterectomy rate was 70% (7/10) in the IABO group and 63.3% (21/33) in the control group (p > 0.05). No IABO-related complications were observed in the mother and fetus. CONCLUSION IABO is an effective and safe method to control intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion in patients with placenta previa increta/percreta.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prior to Caesarean section (CS) for morbidly adherent placenta (MAP), endovascular balloons are often placed prophylactically to minimize hemorrhage. However, there have been few reports describing complications of this intervention. CASE A 41-year-old woman with a diagnosis of placenta percreta had endovascular balloon catheters placed before CS. Intraoperatively the right internal iliac artery ruptured, requiring vascular repair, multiple transfusions of blood and plasma, and admission to the intensive care unit. CONCLUSION Prophylactic placement of endovascular balloons to reduce maternal hemorrhage at CS for MAP may result in complications. Until more evidence becomes available supporting their use, safety guidelines must be instated in centres using them.
