Results: out of total 6873 deliveries, Placenta Praevia is observed in 19 cases (0.276%).97% are unbooked&75% are between 20-25 yrs. 89.4% multiparous women with majority of gestational age between 28- 32 wks (52.6%), h/o prior caesarean section in 42%,31% had prior curettage. 21% had central praevia 26.3% cases are complicated by placenta increta –percreta syndrome. PPH is seen in 89%, needed blood transfusion, uterine artery & internal iliac artery ligation, peripartum hysterectomy is done in 15.87%. In terms of perinatal outcome of patients presenting with placenta praevia 26.3% severe enough to cause intra uterine fetal demise, APGAR< 7 in 36.8% &47.3% neonatal deaths.
