Objective Advances in prenatal imaging techniques have led to an increase in the diagnosis of Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). 6.67 (95% CI,
)). When evaluating the two variants of COS-2 separately, the risk of placenta percreta was significantly higher in pregnancies with COS-1 vs COS-2+ (OR, 5.83 (95% CI, 1.1-30.2)) and this risk was even higher when comparing cases with COS-1 vs COS 12.0 (95% CI,as placenta percreta and increta (OR, 12.85 (95% CI,), while COS-2+ was associated independently with placenta accreta (OR, 4.37 (95% CI,
The prevalence of ultrasonography signs suggestive of AIP varied throughout pregnancy. During the early first trimester, indicators of AIP were similar to those of a cesarean scar pregnancy; classical ultrasonography signs of AIP were already present at 11-14 weeks of pregnancy for most patients.
Ultrasound has a high diagnostic accuracy in detecting the depth of placental invasion when applied to a population with specific risk factors for anomalies such as placenta previa and prior cesarean delivery or uterine surgery.
Objective Ultrasound assessment of the relationship between the ectopic gestational sac and the endometrial line (cross-over sign; COS)
Results
Sixty-eight pregnancies were included in the study. Mean estimated blood loss was higher in AIP pregnancies with COS-1 than in those with COS-2+ (P = 0.039) or COS-2− (P = 0.01). Mean number of packed red blood cell units required during or after the operation was higher in women with COS-1 compared with those with COS-2+ (P
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
