[Treatment of uterine bleeding due to adherent placenta by intrauterine suturing].

We have tried to suture the wound surface in order to check uterine bleeding due to adherent placenta and placenta accreta at the time of cesarean section to preserve the reproductive function of the uterine. Of the 15 patients 13 had active bleeding from the sinusoid at the site of placental attachment: 2 were placenta accreta with bleeding after removal of local site of implantation. No bleeding occurred after the suturing for a follow-up period of 1 to 3 years. The postpartum course was uneventful. This operation is a simple and useful method to check uterine bleeding in cases of adherent placenta and placenta accreta. The procedure indications and important points to be noticed was discussed.
