From High Risk to Hope: A Case Report of Live Birth from Cesarean Scar Pregnancy with Placenta Percreta.

BACKGROUND

Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a rare yet serious condition involving implantation of the gestational sac at the site of a prior cesarean delivery. The management becomes increasingly complex with the addition of placenta percreta. In this paper, a case of CSP complicated by placenta percreta was reported which was successfully managed through a multidisciplinary approach.

CASE PRESENTATION: A 35-year-old G4P3 woman was diagnosed with CSP at 6 weeks of gestation. Despite counseling on the risks, she opted to continue the pregnancy. Placenta percreta was diagnosed at 18 weeks. A multidisciplinary team monitored the pregnancy closely, leading to the delivery of a healthy infant at 32 weeks via cesarean delivery and subsequent hysterectomy.

CONCLUSION

Multidisciplinary management and close follow-up are crucial in managing high-risk CSP cases, especially those complicated by abnormal placentation.
