DIAGNOSTIC VALUE OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING IN GRAVID WOMEN FOR PLACENTA ACCRETA
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Placenta acrreta is an obstetric condition associated with life-threatening hemorrhage, the main cause of postpartum hysterectomy. Its diagnosis and evaluation of degree of invasiveness can help to reduce maternal mortality and morbility. Objectives: To review and describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features in gravid women with suspected placenta accreta and correlate these findings with surgery and pathology finding. Materials and methods: Series retrospective descriptive cases report. Gravid women diagnosed with placenta accreta on MRI, operated on at the National Obstetrics Hospital from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, with surgery protocol and pathology results. Results: MRI correctly diagnosed 50 cases of placenta accreta spectrum out of 56 cases in the study (89%). MRI correctly diagnosed 96.8% of cases of placenta accreta and 83.3% of cases of placenta percreta.
