Placenta percreta: urologic complication after successful conservative management by uterine arterial embolization: a case report

We report a case of placenta accreta that was managed conservatively by uterine arterial embolization and subsequently was complicated by hematuria. Ultrasound revealed a calcified mass at the posterior bladder wall. A careful resection under cystoscopy was carried out without hemorrhagic complicati...

Zusammenfassung:	We report a case of placenta accreta that was managed conservatively by uterine arterial embolization and subsequently was complicated by hematuria. Ultrasound revealed a calcified mass at the posterior bladder wall. A careful resection under cystoscopy was carried out without hemorrhagic complication. Pathologic examination showed placental tissue that confirmed placenta percreta.
