Adherent Placenta, sonographic overview
Shady Saleem
President at ASFMS, Egypt
A
dherent placenta includes placenta increta, placenta excreta, and placenta accrete. Maternal morbidity
and mortality can occur because of severe and sometimes life-threatening haemorrhage, which often
requires blood transfusion. Although ultrasound evaluation is important, the absence of ultrasound findings
does not preclude a diagnosis of adherent placenta; thus, clinical risk factors remain equally important as
predictors of placenta accrete spectrum by ultrasound findings. There are several risk factors for placenta
accrete spectrum. The most common is a previous caesarean delivery, with the incidence of placenta accrete
spectrum increasing with the number of prior caesarean deliveries. Antenatal diagnosis of adherent placenta
is highly desirable because outcomes are optimized when delivery occurs at a well-prepared hospital before
the onset of delivery. So, it is very important to diagnose it before delivery. Ultrasound is a primary method for
diagnose it. There are many ultrasound signs which can used to diagnose it as placental lacunea, absence of
retroplacental space, thin myometrium less than 1mm and bulging of placenta inside the bladder.
