Placenta Accreta Spectrum Outcome After Uterine Conservation

Uterine exteriorization followed by pealing of amniotic membranes to reach an accessible pole of the placenta to detect a plan of cleavage behind it. The independent hand of the surgeon passed through the previous plan from points of least resistance to high resistance. The defect will be repaired from the inner aspect of the uterus via running sutures using Vicryl (1-0) on a round needle, 45mm. the suture will pass from one edge to hitch the bed and pass to the other edge till we completely close the defect subsequently, controlling the bleeding. Uterine scar closure by running sutures in two layers, where the first layer compresses the placental bed defect externally.

"Before the procedure transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound will be done to diagnose PAS and to map the uterine wall defects.~After 3 months,Transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound with different modalities to assess the uterine wall, the cavity, endometrium, myometrium and the cervix. Isthmocele will be defined as a defect at uterine wall where residual myometrium thickness and ratio between residual myometrium and total myometrium thickness will be measured and recorded. The shape of the isthmocele will be also recorded."

Office hysteroscope will be done after patient consent to evaluate the uterine cavity if the patient is symptomatic or with abnormal sonography. It will be performed in the proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory will be given one hour before the procedure, then the patient will be in lithotomy position. Following aseptic rules, the rigid 4 mm hysteroscope will be inserted into the uterus through the cervix without using speculum nor tenaculum. Any pathology will be identified, and data will be recorded.
