Abstract
Placenta previa and placenta accreta are important causes of serious fetal and maternal morbidity and even mortality necessitating hysterectomy. We report a case of total placenta previa with accreta in a 39-year-old female in the 32+2 weeks of pregnancy with successful delivery by cesarean. However, hysterectomy was performed to control postpartum hemorrhage.
