Abstract

We report a case of placenta percreta with bladder invasion in a multiparous woman with five previous cesarean sections. At 25 weeks of gestation, because of severe hematuria, antenatal diagnosis was easy. A multidisciplinary management was carried out with conservative treatment. Three repeated artery embolizations were necessary because of placenta volume and collateral vessels. None surgical treatment was realized to avoid hemorrhage and morbidity secondary to hysterectomy and partial cystectomy.<br /> (Copyright © 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)
