Abstract
OBJECTIVE To quantify the association between prophylactic radiologic interventions and perioperative blood loss during cesarean delivery in women with placenta accreta spectrum disorder through a systematic review and network meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES On January 3, 2023, a literature search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. We also checked ClinicalTrials.gov retrospectively. Prophylactic radiologic interventions to reduce bleeding during cesarean delivery involved preoperative placement of balloon catheters, distal (internal or common iliac arteries) or proximal (abdominal aorta), or sheaths (uterine arteries). The primary outcome was volume of blood loss; secondary outcomes were the number of red blood cell units transfused and adverse events. Studies including women who received an emergency cesarean delivery were excluded. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION Two authors independently screened citations for relevance, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of individual studies with the Cochrane Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions tool. TABULTATION, INTEGRATION, AND RESULTS From a total of 1,332 screened studies, 50 were included in the final analysis, comprising 5,962 women. These studies consisted of two randomized controlled trials and 48 observational studies. Thirty studies compared distal balloon occlusion with a control group, with a mean difference in blood loss of -406 mL (95% CI, -645 to -167). Fourteen studies compared proximal balloon occlusion with a control group, with a mean difference of -1,041 mL (95% CI, -1,371 to -710). Sensitivity analysis excluding studies with serious or critical risk of bias provided similar results. Five studies compared uterine artery embolization with a control group, all with serious or critical risk of bias; the mean difference was -936 mL (95% CI, -1,522 to -350). Reported information on adverse events was limited. CONCLUSION Although the predominance of observational studies in the included literature warrants caution in interpreting the findings of this meta-analysis, our findings suggest that prophylactic placement of balloon catheters or sheaths before planned cesarean delivery in women with placenta accreta spectrum disorder may, in some cases, substantially reduce perioperative blood loss. Further study is required to quantify the efficacy according to various severities of placenta accreta spectrum disorder and the associated safety of these radiologic interventions.

Clinical evaluation of the effect for prophylactic balloon occlusion in pregnancies complicated with placenta accreta spectrum disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2024. [PMID: 38899567 DOI: 10.1002/ijgo.15704] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder is a critical and severe obstetric condition associated with high risk of intraoperative massive hemorrhage and cesarean hysterectomy. Severe obstetric hemorrhage is currently one of the leading causes of maternal death worldwide. Prophylactic balloon occlusions, including prophylactic balloon occlusion of the abdominal aorta (PBOAA) and prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries (PBOIIA), are the most common means of controlling hemorrhage in patients with PAS disorder, but their effectiveness is still debated. OBJECTIVE A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of prophylactic balloon occlusion during cesarean section (CS) in improving maternal outcomes for PAS patients. SEARCH STRATEGY MEDLINE, EMBASE, OVID, PubMed and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched from the inception dates to June 2022, using the keywords "placenta accreta spectrum disorder/morbidly adherent placenta (placenta previa, placenta accreta, placenta increta, placenta percreta), balloon occlusion, internal iliac arteries, abdominal aorta, hemorrhage, hysterectomy, estimated blood loss (EBL), packed red blood cells (PRBCs)" to identify the systematic reviews or meta-analyses. SELECTION CRITERIA All articles regarding PAS disorders and including the application of balloon occlusion were included in the screening. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two independent researchers performed the data extraction and assessed study quality. EBL volume and PRBC transfusion volume was regarded as the primary endpoints. Random and fixed effects models were used for the meta-analysis (RRs and 95% CIs), and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used for quality assessments. MAIN RESULTS Of 429 studies identified, a total of 35 trials involving the application of balloon occlusion for patients with PAS disorder during CS were included. A total of 19 studies involving 935 patients who underwent PBOIIA were included in the PBOIIA group, and 851 patients were included in control 1 group. Ten studies including 428 patients with PAS who underwent PBOAA were allocated to the PBOAA group, and 324 patients without PBOAA were included in control 2 group. Simultaneously, we compared the effect on PBOAA and PBOIIA including seven studies, which referred to 267 cases in the PBOAA group and 313 cases in the PBOIIA group. The results showed that the PBOIIA group had a reduced EBL volume (MD: 342.06 mL, 95% CI: -509.90 to -174.23 mL, I2 = 77%, P < 0.0001) and PRBC volume (MD: -1.57 U, 95% CI: -2.49 to -0.66 U, I2 = 91%, P = 0.0008) than that in control 1 group. With regard to the EBL volume (MD: -926.42 mL, 95% CI: -1437.07 to -415.77 mL, I2 = 96%, P = 0.0004) and PRBC transfusion volume (MD: -2.42 U, 95% CI: -4.25 to -0.59 U, I2 = 99%, P = 0.009) we found significant differences between the PBOAA group and control 2 group. Prophylactic balloon occlusion (PBOAA and PBOIIA) had a significant effect on reducing intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion volume in patients with PAS. Moreover, PBOAA was more effective than PBOIIA in reducing intraoperative blood loss (MD: -406.63 mL, 95% CI: -754.12 to -59.13 mL, I2 = 92%, P = 0.020), but no significant difference in controlling PRBCs (MD: -3.48 U, 95% CI: -8.90 to 1.95 U, I2 = 99%, P = 0.210) between the PBOIIA group and the PBOAA group. Hierarchical analysis was conducted by differentiating gestational weeks and maternal age to reduce the high heterogeneity of meta-analysis. Hierarchical analysis results demonstrated the heterogeneities of the study were reduced to some extent, and gestational weeks and maternal age might be the cause of increased heterogeneity. CONCLUSION Prophylactic balloon occlusion is a safe and effective method to control hemorrhage and reduce PRBC transfusion volume for patients with PAS, and PBOAA could reduce more intraoperative blood loss than PBOIIA. However, we found no statistical difference in lessening packed red blood cell transfusion volume for PAS patients. Hence, preoperative prophylactic balloon occlusion is the recommended application for PAS patients in obstetric CSs. Furthermore, PBOAA is preferred for controlling intraoperative bleeding in patients with corresponding medical conditions.

Abstract
Pernicious placenta previa (PPP) accompanied by placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is a life-threatening placental implantation that causes a variety of complications, including antepartum hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage, hemorrhagic shock, preterm birth, and neonatal asphyxia. Along with continuous improvements in medical technology, interventional procedures have been widely used to prevent intraoperative hemorrhage associated with PPP. The commonly used interventional procedures include abdominal aorta clamping, prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal or common iliac arteries, and uterine artery embolization. The above-mentioned interventional procedures have their respective advantages and disadvantages. The best procedure for different situations continues to be debated considering the complex pattern of blood supply to the uterus in patients with PPP. The specific choice of interventional procedure depends on the clinical situation of the patient with PPP. For grade III PAS, the need for uterine artery embolization is assessed based on blood loss and preoperative hemostatic effect following abdominal aorta clamping. Repair or hysterectomy may be performed following uterine artery embolization if there is a hybrid operating room for grade III PAS patients with extensive sub-serosal penetration of the uterus and repair difficulty. For grade II PAS (shallow placental implantation), prophylactic balloon occlusion may not be necessary before surgery. Uterine artery embolization can be performed in case of postoperative hemorrhage.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of parallel loop binding compression suture of the lower uterus during cesarean section in pernicious placenta previa complicated with placenta increta. Methods: This retrospective study was performed in patients with pernicious placenta previa complicated with placenta increta or percreta between November 2014 and December 2020 at the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. Patients underwent parallel loop binding compression suture surgery were defined as study group, and patients underwent traditional surgery with figure-of-eight sutures as the main hemostatic method were defined as control group. Postpartum hemorrhage was evaluated as the primary outcome. The secondary outcomes included age, gestational weeks, operative time, fetal childbirth time, prevention of hysterectomy, blood transfusion, duration of postoperative catheterization, duration of antibiotic treatment, and postoperative hospitalization (days). Additionally, neonatal outcomes were evaluated. Results: A total of 124 patients were enrolled in the study, including 38 patients receiving parallel loop binding compression suture surgery in the study group, and 86 patients in the control group. With parallel loop binding compression suture, the average operation time was significantly reduced (109.0 ± 33.5 vs. 134.4 ± 54.2 min, p = 0.00), and the volume of blood lost were also decreased (2152.6 ± 1169.4 vs. 2960.5 ± 1963.6 ml, p = 0.02), which correspondingly reduced RBC transfusion (7.2 ± 3.5 vs. 10.3 ± 8.7 units, p = 0.03) and FFP transfusion (552.6 ± 350.3 vs. 968.0 ± 799.8 ml, p = 0.00). The fetal childbirth time was extended (14.1 ± 5.6 vs. 11.0 ± 8.0 min, p = 0.03), however, there was no increase in NICU admission rates (36.9 vs. 34.9%, p = 0.83). Except for one premature infant (32 weeks) death in the control group, all infants at our hospital were safely discharged after treatment. Conclusion: Parallel loop binding compression suture is an effective, swift, practical, and safe method to reduce postpartum bleeding in women with pernicious placenta previa, complicated with placenta increta. Besides, it has no adverse effects on newborns.

Clinical and hemodynamic insights into the use of internal iliac artery balloon occlusion as a prophylactic technique for treating postpartum hemorrhage. J Biomech 2021; 129:110827. [PMID: 34736088 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2021.110827] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 09/02/2021] [Accepted: 10/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Recently, the effectiveness of internal iliac artery balloon occlusion (IIABO) for treating postpartum hemorrhage caused by pernicious placenta previa (PPP) has been questioned. We conducted a retrospective analysis and hemodynamic simulation to assess the IIABO's effectiveness. The retrospective analysis involved 480 patients with PPP, among which 288 underwent IIABO treatment and the remaining 192 were used as controls. Blood loss and preoperative indicators were recorded, and multiple regression analysis was applied to test the effect of preoperative indicators on blood loss. Hemorrhage mechanisms were simulated using a numerical model. Results suggested that no significant difference in blood loss (1836 ± 1440 ml vs. 1784 ± 1647 ml, p = 0.22) was observed between the two groups. In addition, preoperative indicators, including age, weight, gestational age, gravidity, parity, blood type, anemia, or diabetes, were not associated with blood loss. In the simulation, after the intra-iliac artery was blocked, blood loss was caused by a reversed flow in the intrapelvic arteries, uterine veins, and uterine venules. The ratio of the time-averaged hemorrhage velocity (TAHV) in the balloon group to that in the control group was lower than that obtained in a clinical study (13.0% vs. 88.9%); in the presence of collateral circulation, blood loss occurred from collateral circulation and uterine venules after IIABO intervention, and the TAHV was 60%-90% that of the control group, which was closer to the clinical results (88.9%). These results suggest that IIABO cannot effectively treat postpartum hemorrhage because of the collateral circulation and reversed flow in the uterine venules.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) can induce severe life-threatening obstetric hemorrhage. Herein, we conducted a Bayesian network meta-analysis of previous studies to evaluate the relative benefits of different prophylactic balloon occlusion (PBO) procedures. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from inception to July 2021. Blood loss volume, blood transfusion volume, and hysterectomy rate were regarded as the primary endpoints. The data were pooled using a Bayesian network and traditional pairwise meta-analysis. RESULTS Fifty-nine articles with a total sample size of 5150 patients were included. Compared with no PBO (non-PBO) intervention, PBO of the abdominal aorta (PBOAA, mean difference(MD) - 1.02, 95% credible interval (CrI) - 1.4 to - 0.67), common iliac artery (PBOCIA, MD - 0.84; 95%CrI - 1.36 to - 0.06) and internal iliac artery (PBOIIA, MD - 0.42; 95%CrI - 0.72 to - 0.13) significantly lowered blood loss volume, with PBOAA being more effective than PBOIIA (MD - 0.60; 95%CrI - 1.05 to - 0.17). PBOAA and PBOIIA also significantly decreased blood loss volume (MD - 2.33; 95%CrI - 3.74 to - 0.94, MD - 1.57; 95%CrI - 2.77 to - 0.47 respectively) and hysterectomy rate (OR 0.31; 95%CrI 0.16 to 0.54, OR 0.53; 95%CrI 0.29 to 0.92 respectively). PBOAA has the highest probability of being more effective in reducing the blood loss volume, blood transfusion volume, and hysterectomy rate. CONCLUSIONS Performing PBOAA, PBOCIA, or PBOIIA in PAS patients is an effective way to minimize blood loss volume, while PBOAA and PBOIIA also reduce blood transfusion volume and hysterectomy rate. PBOAA is a notably more effective strategy to reduce blood loss volume than PBOIIA. KEY POINTS • PBOAA, PBOCIA, and PBOIIA procedures can significantly reduce the blood loss volume compared to non-PBO intervention in PAS patients, of which PBOAA was more effective than the PBOIIA procedure. • PBOAA and PBOIIA could significantly reduce the blood transfusion volume and hysterectomy rate in contrast to the non-PBO intervention in patients with PAS. • According to our statistical treatment ranking, PBOAA was statistically superior in reducing blood transfusion volume, blood transfusion volume, and hysterectomy rate than other PBO procedures.

Abstract
Background Placenta previa and accreta are serious obstetric conditions that are associated with a high risk of intraoperative massive hemorrhage, the prophylactic intravascular balloon occlusion technique is increasingly used in managing uncontrolled hemorrhage in cesarean section (CS). We aim to examine the clinical effectiveness of prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac artery (PBOIIA) during CS in improving maternal outcomes for patients with placenta previa and accreta. Methods A total of 420 women with placenta previa and accreta who underwent CS from January 2014 to December 2018 were included retrospectively. Patients were divided into balloon group in which patients had PBOIIA (n = 248) and the control group in which patients did not have PBOIIA (n = 172). Meanwhile, we performed a subgroup analysis in whether taking parallel transverse uterine incision (PTUI) surgery. Information on conditions of patients and newborns, perioperative blood indicators, surgical outcomes were collected. Results Median estimated blood loss (mEBL) was 2200 mL in the balloon group and 2150 mL in the control group respectively, there was no significant difference between two-groups comparison (P > 0.05), and the rate of patients with hysterectomy was also has no difference between the two groups (36.3% verus 35.5%, P > 0.05), while there is a significant difference between two groups in the amount of PRBCs transfused [3 (0–31.5) verus 3 (0–39), P <0.05], moreover, the proportion of PRBCS> 8 units in the balloon group is significantly lower than that in control group (11.29% verus 23.26%, P <0.05).. However, the total hospitalization costs (45,624.4 ± 11,061.9 verus 37,523.1 ± 14,662.2, CYN) and surgery costs (19,910.6 ± 2622.6 verus 11,850.5 ± 3146.1, CYN) in balloon group were significantly higher than those in control group (P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis showed PTUI surgery had no significant differences in EBL (P >0.05), but it could significantly decrease hysterectomy rates (P <0.05). Conclusions PBOIIA has no significant effect on reducing intraoperative EBL and hysterectomy rate in patients with placenta previa and accreta. and although it could reduce the intraoperative PRBCs in patients with massive hemorrhage, it significantly increases the financial cost for patients. Therefore, PBOIIA should not be routinely recommended to patients with placenta previa and accreta.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the effect of ovarian arteries on the use of prophylactic abdominal aortic balloon occlusion (PABO) in patients with coexisting placenta accreta and placenta previa. Methods Thirty-two pregnant women with coexisting placenta accreta and placenta previa treated with PABO in our hospital during 2013-2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups: one with infra-renal abdominal aortic balloon occlusion above the ovarian artery (Group A, n = 15) and the other with occlusion below the ovarian artery (Group B, n = 17). Medical records and relevant imaging of all patients were reviewed. All Cesarean deliveries were scheduled and we decided to perform hysterectomy based on the surgical findings. Results Patients in both groups were similar in terms of age, gravidity history, and status of placenta. Regarding their outcomes, estimated blood loss was not significantly different in both groups, although it was lower in Group B than in Group A (3949.5 vs. 4333.8 ml). The other tested parameters did not show any difference. The uterus was preserved in 13 (41%) patients. No access-related or balloon occlusion-related complications occurred in either group. Conclusions PABO was safe. However, the balloon location (above or below the ovarian arteries) did not influence the outcomes. Further evaluation and prospective studies are required to evaluate the safety and efficacy of balloon occlusion above or below the ovarian artery in patients with coexisting placenta accreta and placenta previa.

Experience of Managing Suspected Placenta Accreta Spectrum with or without Internal Iliac Artery Balloon Occlusion in Two Lithuanian University Hospitals. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2021; 57:medicina57040345. [PMID: 33918344 PMCID: PMC8065721 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57040345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2021] [Revised: 03/25/2021] [Accepted: 03/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Background and objectives: Placenta previa and placenta accreta spectrum are considered major causes of massive postpartum hemorrhage. Objective: To determine whether the placement of an occlusion balloon catheter in the internal iliac artery could reduce bleeding and other related complications during cesarean delivery in patients with placenta previa and placenta accreta spectrum. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted at two tertiary obstetric units of Lithuania. From January 2016 to November 2019 patients with placenta previa and antenatally suspected invasive placenta were included in the intervention group and underwent cesarean delivery with endovascular procedure. From January 2014 to December 2015 patients with placenta previa and suspected placenta accreta spectrum were included in the non-intervention group. The primary outcomes were reduction in intraoperative blood loss and transfusion volumes in the intervention group. Secondary outcomes were the incidence of hysterectomy and maternal complications. Results: Nineteen patients underwent cesarean delivery with preoperative endovascular procedure, and 47 women underwent elective cesarean delivery. The median intraoperative blood loss (1000 (400–4500) mL vs. 1000 (400–5000) mL; p = 0.616) and the need for red blood cell transfusion during operation (26% vs. 23%; p = 0.517) did not differ significantly between the patients groups. Seven patients in the intervention group and two patients in the non-intervention group underwent perioperative hysterectomy (p = 0.002). None of the patients had complications related to the endovascular procedure. Conclusion: The use of intermittent balloon occlusion catheter in patients with placenta pathology is a safe method but does not significantly reduce intraoperative blood loss during cesarean delivery.

Abstract
Background: Abnormal invasive placentation leads to massive intraoperative hemorrhage and maternal morbidity. This study aimed to assess the impact of the preoperative use of internal iliac artery balloon occlusion (IIABO) catheters in patients who had a cesarean delivery (CD) for invasive placentation, commonly known as the placenta accreta spectrum. Methods: This retrospective cohort study reviewed 67 pregnancies complicated by abnormal invasive placenta and confirmed intraoperatively. Preoperative planned placement of IIABO was performed in 33 women who underwent elective CD. Senior Obstetricians with the necessary expertise performed all CDs. The primary outcome measures were: intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion requirement, duration of surgery and the need for hemostatic measures. Univariate comparison between the groups and regression analysis of the primary outcome and controlling for confounders, were performed. Results: No statistically significant difference was observed between the groups with intraoperative hemorrhage volume of above 3000 mL (unadjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.94 [no-IIABO group as the reference]; p = 0.895) and the median duration of surgery (median 107, interquartile range [IQR] 80–135 vs. median 96, IQR 75–121; p = 0.3508). More than 40% of the IIABO group required intraoperative transfusion of packed red blood cells above six units (14 [42.4%] vs. 10 [29.4%]; p = 0.357]), and 30% required additional postoperative transfusion (10 [30.3%] vs. 8 [23.5%]; p = 0.706]), although not statistically significant. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the difference remained nonsignificant after covariate adjustment (adjusted OR 0.585, p = 0.456). Cesarean hysterectomy was performed in fewer cases (seven [21.1%]) in the IIABO group than in the no-IIABO group (10 [29.4%]), although this difference was not significant (unadjusted OR 0.65, p = 0.442). Conclusions: The placement of IIABO catheters is an invasive procedure, which consumes time and resources. Its value as a means of reducing intraoperative blood loss or preserving the uterus in patients with abnormal placental adherence appears questionable. In this cohort study, there was no statistical difference in blood loss, and the need for other steps to control hemorrhage between women with and without IIABO catheters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Placenta previa describes a placenta that extends partially or completely over the internal cervical oss. Placenta previa is one of the leading causes of widespread postpartum hemorrhage and maternal mortality worldwide. Another cause of bleeding in pregnant women is Placenta accreta spectrum. Therefore, the aim of the present systematic review and meta-analysis is to determine the effect of prophylactic balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries in patients with placenta previa or placental accreta spectrum (PAS). METHODS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, to identify and select relevant studies, the SID, MagIran, ScienceDirect, Embase, Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases were searched, using the keywords of internal iliac artery balloon, placenta, previa, balloon, accreta, increta and percreta, without a lower time limit and until 2020. The heterogeneity of the studies was examined using the I2 index, and subsequently a random effects model was applied. Data analysis was performed within the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software (version 2). RESULTS In the review of 29 articles with a total sample size of 1140 in the control group, and 1225 in the balloon occlusion group, the mean difference between the two groups was calculated in terms of Intraoperative blood loss index (mL) and it was derived as 3.21 ± 0.38; moreover, in 15 studies with a sample size of 887 in the control group, and 760 in the balloon occlusion group, the mean difference between the two groups in terms of gestation index (weeks) was found as 2.84 ± 0.49; and also with regards to hysterectomy balloon occlusion after prophylactic closure of the iliac artery, hysterectomy (%) balloon occlusion was calculated as 8.9 %, and this, in the hysterectomy control group (%) was obtained as 31.2 %; these differences were statistically significant and showed a positive effect of the intervention (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The results of this study show that the use of prophylactic internal iliac artery balloon occlusion in patients with placenta previa or Placenta accreta spectrum has benefits such as reduced intraoperative blood loss, reduced hysterectomy and increased gestation (weeks), which can be considered by midwives and obstetricians.

Abstract
The strict correlation between abnormal invasive placentation and postpartum hemorrhage suggests that a widespread antenatal diagnosis of placental anomalies would improve the management of these challenging patients; acting preventive solutions at the moment of delivery reduces blood loss and avoid hysterectomies. The role of endovascular procedures in this field has been encouraged by multiple studies reporting prophylactic uterine arteries embolization and iliac/aortic balloon catheters positioning. This paper aims to review the main imaging diagnostic findings of placental implant anomalies and summarize the principal preventive endovascular strategies proposed in literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate safety and efficacy of intra-aortic balloon occlusion (IABO) versus internal iliac artery balloon occlusion (IIABO) for cesarean delivery in coexisting placenta accreta and placenta previa. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 2006 to 2019, 60 pregnant women who had undergone preoperative IABO (n = 28) and IIABO (n = 32) for cesarean delivery in coexisting placenta accreta and placenta previa were retrospectively identified, and their medical records and relevant imaging were reviewed. RESULTS Maternal characteristics (age, gravidity, previous cesarean delivery, gestational age, and neonatal weight) were similar in both groups. Estimated blood loss, volume of blood transfusion, length of hospitalization, and rate of hysterectomy were not significantly different between the groups. Operation time (the duration of cesarean delivery and hysterectomy, p < 0.05), total time of balloon occlusion (p < 0.01), and fetal radiation dose (p < 0.001) in the IABO group were less than in the IIABO group. No severe complications related to the balloon occlusion procedure were noted in either group. CONCLUSION IABO and IIABO are safe and effective options for cesarean delivery in patients with combined placenta accreta and placenta previa. The average operation time, balloon occlusion time, and fetal radiation dose in patients with IABO are less than in patients with IIABO. There were no complications related to balloon occlusion of the aorta or internal iliac artery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic internal iliac artery balloon occlusion combined with Pituitrin intra-arterial infusion in the control of postpartum hemorrhage in women with placenta accreta spectrum (PAS). METHODS This is a prospective and non-randomized controlled study. The participants were assigned into three groups: without balloon catheterization (non-BC) group, balloon catheterization (BC) group, and Pituitrin combined with balloon catheterization (PBC) group. The primary outcomes were estimated blood loss (EBL) and the units of transfused packed red blood cells (PRBC). The secondary outcome was the incidence of hysterectomy. RESULTS A total of 100 participants were recruited between August 2013 and November 2018 and assigned into the respective groups as follows: 27 in the non-BC group, 22 in the BC group, and 51 in the PBC group. No statistical differences were found in demographic characteristics among the three groups. There was a trend of lower EBL, PRBC, and hysterectomy rate in the BC group than those in the non-BC group, while all values showed no significant differences (all p > 0.05). Patients in the PBC group had significantly lower EBL, PRBC, and hysterectomy rate compared with those in the non-BC group (all p < 0.05). Linear regression analysis revealed that the PBC (vs. others) was negatively correlated with EBL and the non-BC (vs. others) independently predicted more EBL. CONCLUSIONS Balloon occlusion combined with Pituitrin infusion is an effective treatment method which significantly reduced EBL, PRBC, and hysterectomy rate in patients with PAS. KEY POINTS • Internal iliac artery balloon occlusion combined with Pituitrin intra-arterial infusion can significantly decrease EBL, PRBC, and hysterectomy rate during cesarean section in patients with PAS. • Cesarean section without balloon occlusion and placenta accreta depth are two independent risk factors for EBL in patients with PAS.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and fetal complications. Placenta percreta, involving placental attachment to another organ, is a rare but severe placental abnormality. We report a 26-year-old woman, G2P1, with a 6-year history of SLE with coexisting pernicious placenta previa and placenta percreta detected by second trimester ultrasound. She discontinued prednisone 5 months before admission, without consultation, and active SLE was diagnosed on admission. Because of her progressive condition, the patient underwent infrarenal abdominal aorta balloon occlusion and double J ureteral catheter placement, followed by elective cesarean at 27+6 weeks gestation. Despite aggressive management, she experienced severe bleeding requiring internal iliac artery ligation and peripartum hysterectomy. The placenta had penetrated the uterus walls and attached to the bladder apex, necessitating bladder repair. Thrombosis was detected in the common iliac artery and common femoral artery in the right leg 1 day postoperatively. Conservative antithrombotic therapy had little effect, and embolectomy by arteriotomy was performed on the 6th post-cesarean day, and an arterial thrombus was removed. Infrarenal abdominal aorta balloon occlusion may increase the risk of postoperative thrombosis in pregnant women with active SLE and coagulation disorders. These patients therefore require close monitoring and timely anticoagulation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To evaluate the feasibility of uterine arteries prophylactic occlusion balloon placement (POBP) to reduce hemorrhagic complications associated with placenta praevia. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was carried out from January 2014 to November 2018. Only women with a diagnosis of placenta praevia and gestational age at delivery between 33 and 40 weeks were included. All women were diagnosed using transvaginal ultrasound scan (TVS) and confirmed with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). All women underwent uterine arteries POBP before caesarean delivery (CD). All patients underwent clinical and instrumental follow-up with semestral outpatient TVS for 2 years after the surgery. RESULTS Forty-eight pregnant women were recruited and analyzed. 32/48 patients (66%) had positive anamnesis for previous CDs. Mean blood loss was 510 ± 222 mL. 15/48 patients (31.6%) were supported with RBC concentrate transfusion. In 10 (20.8%) cases, an intrauterine haemostatic balloon (Bakri-Balloon, Cook Medical, Spencer, USA) was used to control the intra-operative hemorrhage. Hysterectomy was performed in eight cases (16.6%). No cases of hemodynamic instability or urinary complications were reported. No postoperative complications occurred. During follow-up, no long-term complications were observed and nine patients had a successful pregnancy. CONCLUSIONS Uterine arteries POPB is a promising technique that may be adopted in women with placenta praevia to prevent hemorrhagic complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We evaluated the risk factors for massive bleeding based on angiographic findings in patients with placenta previa and accreta who underwent balloon occlusion of the internal iliac artery (BOIA) during cesarean section. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis using the clinical records of 42 patients with placenta previa and accreta who underwent BOIA during cesarean section between 2006 and 2017 in Gunma university hospital. We reviewed incidence of collateral arteries to the uterus on the initial aortography. We evaluated the visualization of the ovarian artery arising directly from the abdominal aorta, round ligament artery arising from the external iliac artery/inferior epigastric artery, and the iliolumbar artery. In addition, the clinical characteristics were reviewed. Patients with an estimated blood loss during delivery of >2500 ml, >4 packed red blood cell transfusions, uterine artery embolization after delivery, or hysterectomy were defined as the massive bleeding group. We compared between the massive and non-massive bleeding groups. RESULTS 20 patients (48%) had a massive bleeding. No procedure-related severe complications were observed. The massive and non-massive bleeding groups differed in terms of operation time (p < 0.001), hysterectomy (p < 0.001), post-operative hospital stay (p < 0.05), and visualization of round ligament arteries to the uterus [15/20 (75%) patients, p < 0.01]. CONCLUSION The incidence of collateral blood supply from a round ligament artery to the uterus may be a risk factor for massive bleeding in patients with placenta previa and accreta who have undergone BOIA during cesarean section. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Angiographic visualization of collateral circulation from the round ligament artery to the uterus may be a risk factor for massive bleeding in patients with placenta previa and accreta who have undergone BOIA during cesarean section.

Abstract
Objective: To determine whether maternal plasma human placental lactogen (hPL) mRNA levels can predict abnormally invasive placenta. Study design: Sixty-eight singleton pregnant women with prior Cesarean deliveries were classified into three groups: 35 with normal placentation (control group); 21 with placenta previa alone (placenta previa group); 12 with placenta previa and placenta accreta (placenta accreta group). Maternal plasma hPL mRNA concentrations were measured by real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction Result: The multiple of the median (median, range) for hPL mRNA was significantly higher for the placenta accreta group (2.78, 1.09-4.56) than the control (1.00, 0.29-2.98) or placenta previa (1.12, 0.33-3.25) groups (Steel-Dwass test, p < .001 and p = .005, respectively), was not significantly different between the women with placenta accreta who underwent hysterectomies (2.96, 1.38-4.56) and the women whose deliveries did not result in hysterectomy (2.36, 1.09-3.25) in the placenta accreta group (Mann-Whitney U test, p = .372). Conclusion: hPL mRNA in maternal plasma may indicate abnormally invasive placenta but cannot predict whether abnormally invasive placenta will result in hysterectomy.

Role of interventional radiology in pregnancy complicated by placenta accreta spectrum disorder: systematic review and meta-analysis. ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS & GYNECOLOGY : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY 2019; 53:743-751. [PMID: 30255598 DOI: 10.1002/uog.20131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2018] [Revised: 09/12/2018] [Accepted: 09/19/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the potential benefit of interventional radiology (IR) in improving the outcome of women undergoing surgery for a placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE and CINAHL databases were searched for studies comparing outcomes of women with a prenatal diagnosis of PAS who underwent an IR procedure before surgery vs those who did not, using a robust collection of terms relating to PAS. The primary outcome was intraoperative estimated blood loss (EBL). Secondary outcomes were the number of transfused units of packed red blood cells (PRBC), fresh frozen plasma (FFP), platelets and cryoprecipitate, operation time, length of hospital stay, EBL ≥ 2.5 L, PRBC transfused ≥ 5 units, surgical complications, bladder or ureteral injury, relaparotomy, infection, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and complications related to endovascular catheter placement. Only studies reporting on the incidence of, or the mean difference in, the observed outcomes in women affected by a PAS disorder who had vs those who did not have an IR procedure before surgery were considered for inclusion. All outcomes were explored in the overall population of women with a prenatally diagnosed PAS disorder and in those undergoing hysterectomy. Quality assessment of each included study was performed using the Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool. The GRADE methodology was used to assess the quality of the body of retrieved evidence. RESULTS Fifteen studies (958 women with PAS) were included. In women who underwent IR before surgery, compared with those who did not, mean EBL (mean difference (MD), -1.02 L; 95% CI, -1.60 to -0.43 L; P < 0.001) and the risk of EBL ≥ 2.5 L (odds ratio (OR), 0.18; 95% CI, 0.04-0.78; P = 0.02) were significantly lower. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the other outcomes explored. On subgroup analysis of pregnancies complicated by PAS undergoing hysterectomy, EBL (MD, -0.68 L; 95% CI, -1.24 to -0.12 L; P = 0.02) and the number of transfused FFP units (MD, -1.66; 95% CI, -2.71 to -0.61; P = 0.02) were significantly lower in women who had an endovascular IR procedure compared with controls. Furthermore, women undergoing IR had a significantly lower risk of EBL ≥ 2.5 L (OR, 0.10; 95% CI, 0.02-0.47; P = 0.004). Overall, complications related to the placement of an endovascular catheter occurred in 5.3% (95% CI, 2.6-8.9; I2 , 65.3%) of pregnancies undergoing IR. Overall quality of evidence, as assessed by GRADE, was very low. CONCLUSIONS The current available data provide encouraging evidence that IR procedures may be associated with lower EBL and need for transfusion in pregnancies undergoing surgery for a PAS disorder. However, given the overall very low quality of the evidence, further large studies are needed in order to confirm the beneficial role of IR in improving the outcome of these women.

Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to explore the therapeutic effectiveness of prophylactic internal iliac artery balloon occlusion (IIABO) during cesarean delivery in the management of patients with pernicious placenta previa (PPP) coexisting with placenta accreta (PA).Methods: This retrospectively study enrolled 83 patients diagnosed with PPP coexisting with PA in our hospital between January 2014 and December 2017. The patients were divided into the study group (n = 58, receiving routine cesarean section followed prophylactic IIABO) and control group (n = 25, receiving routine cesarean section alone). The general situation, intraoperative conditions, maternal and neonatal outcomes, and postoperative complications between the two groups were compared.Results: The two groups were comparable due to no significant difference in the general situation of patients. The intraoperative conditions, such as intraoperative and postoperative blood loss, transfusion volume and the incidence rate of transfusion in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group, but the incidence rate of disseminated intravascular coagulation and hysterectomy did not exhibit significant differences. Moreover, maternal and neonatal outcomes were not significantly different. Besides, in the study group, a patient with left foot numbness appeared left popliteal artery thrombosis and four patients experienced fever of <38.5 °C and lower abdominal pain. In the control group, a patient underwent hysterectomy.Conclusions: Prophylactic IIABO is an alternative method to control postpartum hemorrhage in the treatment of PPP coexisting with PA. However, it may not decrease the incidence of hysterectomy.
