Abstract |
This paper presents the management of a woman undergoing her fifth caesarean section in the presence of a placenta percreta. It reviews the incidence and surgical management of this complex pathology. Advanced planning and multidisciplinary coordination is crucial to successful treatment of this condition. There are implications for theatre staff of all professions to be confident and familiar with specialist equipment. Such cases represent a trend of multidisciplinary working that is increasingly part of current practice.
