Abstract
Case Summary: A 25-year-old woman who was referred to our hospital at 38 week’s gestation from another hospital as a case of placenta previa with possible accreta. She underwent cesarean hysterectomy and encountered sever postpartum hemorrhage that required massive transfusion of blood products and arterial embolization which was done and saved her life without further morbidity. Conclusion: With increased prevalence of placenta accreta spectrum, arterial embolization facility should be an integral part of treatment protocol to save maternal life.
