Chapter 1
History of Placenta Accreta Spectrum
Nashwa Anwar Eltaweel and Ahmed Y. Hefnawy
The placenta accreta spectrum is a broad-spectrum pathology related to the abnor-
mally deeply invading and abnormally adherent placental tissues through the uter-
ine wall. Many theories tried to explain the reason behind the pathology; however,
the most popular theory is the destruction of the decidual lining either by the previ-
ous caesareans, curettage, infection, IVF, or myomectomy; simply any disruption of
the endometrial lining can predispose to the deeper implantation of the placenta
through the underlying myometrial layer. The degree of this adherence to or through
the myometrium will further classify the severity of the pathology [1].
With the rising rates of caesarean section deliveries, it is believed that it was
associated with the new emerging pathology “placenta accreta spectrum” despite
lacking strong evidence to support this theory [2]. By searching the literature, we
noted that, in 1885, the first suspected pathologically adherent placenta was
described when Macdonald described a case of a suspected adherent placenta fol-
lowing a prolonged vaginal birth, where some cotyledons were retained intrauterine
following vaginal delivery; the patient was managed conservatively by opiate for
pain control and ergot as an ecbolic to enhance uterine activity. The cotyledons were
retained for days and passed spontaneously as they could not be removed manually;
however, the patient had postpartum sepsis [3].
In 1927, S Foster, from Montreal hospital in Canada, reported “a case of pla-
centa accreta”. The patient had a vaginal breech delivery for a dead fetus. After
delivery, he could not deliver the placenta despite a trial of manual removal under
