Abstract
|
|
|
Placenta increta is a life threatening complication of pregnancy, causing severe post-curettage bleeding. It is usually presented in the postpartum period with hemorrhage during difficult placental removal. It is especially rare in the 1st and 2nd trimesters, which is not easy to find and diagnose. We have confirmed a case of placenta increta after emergency hysterectomy due to severe vaginal bleeding following the dilatation and curettage during the 1st trimester of her pregnancy. So we report it with a brief case history and review of the concerned literatures.
