Histerectomy Vs Partial Myometrial Resection for Placenta Accreta Spectrum

Hysterectomy: An incision will be made above the level of the placenta, delivering the newborn. Uterotonics will be administered, and spontaneous delivery of the placenta will be awaited using gentle traction. The absence of spontaneous separation of the placenta will confirm the diagnosis of PAS, the patient will undergo to hysterectomy. The complete removal of the uterus will be attempted, including the cervix, the duration of the intervention and intraoperative blood loss will be recorded, as well as the damage to organs neighboring the uterus. In this arm of the study, to hysterectomy will be performed in 100% of patients

Partial myometrial resection: The technique described by Palacios-Jaraquemada et al5. will be followed. Briefly, the uterus will be dissected to free it from the posterior wall of the bladder to the cervix. The vesico-uterine vessels will be ligated and the parametrial space will be visualized. The hysterotomy will be performed in the upper segment, immediately above the area of invasion of the myometrium. The entire invaded myometrium and the entire placenta will be removed. The uterus will repair itself in one or two layers. Intrauterine balloon tamponade will be used if indicated.
