Study of Management of Morbidly Adherent Placenta and Maternal and Perinatal Outcome

Abstract

The aim of the study was to identify the risk factors associated with morbidly adherent placenta and to study the different modes of management and the maternal and perinatal outcome of these patients. Methods This was a retrospective cum prospective observational study conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Government Medical College, Bettiah from March, 2016 to March 2018. Results The incidence of morbidly adherent placenta was 1.43 per 1000 pregnancies with patient profile comprising second gravida in the age group 25–27 years; 90 % of the patients in this study had previous Caesarean section and co-existing placenta praevia was diagnosed in 62 %. Fifty-three per cent of the women delivered between 35 and 37 weeks and 40 % had elective deliveries. Caesarean section was the mode of delivery in 90 % of the patients. Prophylactic balloon placement in the internal iliac artery followed by classical Caesarean section, and post-operative methotrexate was done in 27 % which preserved the uterus and was associated with the blood loss of 1000–2000 mL. Conclusion Antenatal diagnosis of morbidly adherent placenta allows for multidisciplinary approach and planning in an attempt to minimize potential maternal or neonatal morbidity and mortality.
