A RARE CASE OF PLACENTA INCRETA – CASE REPORT

In these years with the raise in cesarean section rates, the frequency of PAS cases has risen. It has accounted for 33–50% of all emergency peripartum or obstetric hysterectomies. PAS is an obstetric emergency associated with a high maternal morbidity and mortality rate, presenting unique challenges in its diagnosis and management. We present a 24-year-old third gravida with previous 2 LSCS, who presented with PV bleeding, being unaware of pregnancy. This 22week pregnancy with previous 2 LSCS with placenta previa with active PV bleed, was managed surgically with obstetric hysterectomy as per intraoperative evidence and unstable vitals with severe hemorrhagic shock. Post operative recovery and follow-up was uneventful.
