ABSTRACT
PIP: The association between previous cesarean section delivery and subsequent development of placenta praevia and placenta praevia with accreta was investigated in a retrospective review of the records of all women delivered at Princess Badeea Teaching Hospital (Irbid, Jordan) in 1995-96 with a diagnosis of placenta praevia. The 65 women with placenta praevia represented 0.35% of total deliveries during the 2-year study period; 21 of these women (32.3%) had a history of previous cesarean section. The incidence of placenta praevia was significantly greater in women with a history of cesarean section than in those without such a history (1.87% and 0.25%, respectively; p 0.0001). This risk increased with increases in the number of previous surgical deliveries: 1.78% for 1, 2.4% for 2, and 2.8% for 3 or more. The incidence of placenta accreta also was significantly increased in women with previous cesarean section compared to those without a prior surgical delivery (40.8% and 9.0%, respectively; p 0.005).
