Preservation of fertility and subsequent childbirth after methotrexate treatment of placenta percreta: a case report
2015
Introduction
Placenta percreta is associated with maternal morbidity and mortality. A hysterectomy is often needed to control the bleeding in such cases. However, it has been advocated that placenta percreta be managed conservatively to avoid massive pelvic bleeding and to preserve the patient’s fertility. Here, we present a case of placenta percreta diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging, and treated with systemic administration of methotrexate.
