Conservative surgery for placenta accreta in women with prior c-section
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a planned surgical approach for placenta accreta (when the placenta grows too deeply into the uterine wall) in women who have had a previous c-section. If you are at least 28 weeks pregnant and have been diagnosed with this condition, the trial aims to see if a conservative surgery can help safely manage it.

This trial tests a new surgical technique for women with placenta accreta (a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus). The technique uses a special band (tourniquet) to reduce bleeding during surgery, compared to the standard approach. If you have had a C-section before and want to keep your uterus for future children, this study may be an option for you.
This trial compares two surgical methods for managing placenta accreta spectrum (a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterine wall). It tests whether a less invasive approach (tamponade) works as well as removing part of the uterus (partial myometrial resection) in women having a cesarean section.
This trial looks at how to diagnose and what happens to pregnant women with a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus (placental accreta). It may help doctors better understand the condition and improve care.
This study follows pregnant women who may have placenta accreta—a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus. Researchers will measure the length of the cervix and how deeply the placenta is attached using ultrasound to help guide care during pregnancy.
This trial tests a new classification system for placenta accreta spectrum (PAS), a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterine wall. It aims to see if this system helps predict outcomes and improve care for pregnant people who need surgery for PAS.
This trial studies a simpler, non-surgical approach to managing a condition called morbidly adherent placenta (where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus). It is for people who are at least 28 weeks pregnant, have placenta previa, and are not having heavy bleeding.
