Transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound findings help to guide the clinical management of placenta accreta spectrum cases

Review Obstetrics & Gynecology

A simple guide to ultrasound screening for placenta accreta spectrum for improving detection and optimizing management in resource limited settings

Theophilus K. Adu-Bredu et al.

Summary: This article provides a simple three-step approach to guide clinicians and sonographers with minimal experience in placenta accreta spectrum through risk stratification and basic prenatal screening for this condition.

How to perform the one-step conservative surgery for placenta accreta spectrum move by move

Albaro Jose Nieto-Calvache et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing one-step conservative surgery for placenta accreta spectrum in 4 reference hospitals and provided detailed steps for successful application of this type of surgery. Results showed that one-step conservative surgery was possible in 85.3% of cases. Compared to the group managed with cesarean delivery and hysterectomy, the one-step surgery group had lower frequency of transfusions and vascular interventions, and shorter operation time.

Placenta accreta spectrum: a hysterectomy can be prevented in almost 80% of cases using a resective-reconstructive technique

Jose Miguel Palacios-Jaraquemada et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed a series of cases to describe the use of surgical repair (one-step resective-conservative surgery) in all cases of placenta accreta spectrum. The results showed that this approach can preserve the uterus with minimal morbidity and reduced blood loss in almost 80% of cases.

Conservative management or cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum: the PACCRETA prospective study

Loic Sentilhes et al.

Summary: Conservative management for women with placenta accreta spectrum undergoing cesarean delivery is associated with a lower risk of transfusion of >4 units of packed red blood cells within 6 months compared to cesarean hysterectomy. However, there may be potential complications associated with conservative management.

Uterine conservative-resective surgery for selected placenta accreta spectrum cases: Surgical-vascular control methods

Rozi Aditya Aryananda et al.

Summary: The optimal management and vascular control methods in placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) are still controversial. This study compared the maternal outcomes between different vascular control methods in surgical management of PAS. The results showed that uterine conservative-resective surgery had lower blood loss compared with cesarean hysterectomy with internal iliac artery ligation (IIAL). Within the uterine conservative-resective surgery group, identification-ligation of the upper vesical, upper vaginal, and uterine arteries resulted in significantly lower blood loss compared with IIAL. Cesarean hysterectomy is not the default treatment for all PAS cases, but rather uterine conservative-resective surgery with appropriate vascular control may be suitable.

How to identify patients who require aortic vascular control in placenta accreta spectrum disorders?

Albaro Jose Nieto-Calvache et al.

Summary: This study describes an intraoperative staging protocol that helps identify the need for vascular control procedures in patients with placenta accreta spectrum. The results show that applying resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta after intraoperative staging can decrease its frequency of use without increasing blood loss.

The rail sign: an ultrasound finding in placenta accreta spectrum indicating deep villous invasion and adverse outcomes

Jin-Chung Shih et al.

Summary: The study found that a rail sign depicted by color Doppler sonography is associated with deeper villous invasion, additional perioperative approaches, and more adverse clinical outcomes. Patients with a rail sign had a significantly higher risk of abnormal placental invasion, such as placenta increta or placenta percreta, and were more likely to require preoperative vascular control, uterine artery embolization, blood transfusions, ICU admission, hysterectomy, and bladder invasion. Their blood loss and hospital stay were also greater than those without a rail sign.
