Impact of placental location matter in placenta accreta spectrum disorders.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features suggestive of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders exist. However, the impact of placental location on clinical characteristics and MRI features in PAS has not been fully explored. The aim of this study was to explore the difference of MRI signs in different placental position in PAS disorders.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed surgically or pathologically confirmed PAS cases at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from 2016 to 2021. Placental location was categorized based on MRI as anterior, posterior, or anterior/posterior. MRI features were thoroughly reviewed and compared.

Results

A total of 262 patients were included in the study, comprising 38 (14.50%) with placenta accreta, 120 (45.80%) with
