Severe Placenta Accreta Spectrum rarely needs a vertical laparotomy We need to stop being driven by ‘obstetric fear’ and start considering the scar each woman will carry on her psyche as a result of the one we inflict on her abdomen Transverse is safe⬇️

Fantastic talk, thank you @Khalaf05
Very much enjoyed this excellent talk from @Khalaf05 at FORGE conference: Major lessons of 5 decades of IVF. Biology such as maternal age is key. We must wait for the evidence before applying new technologies. Avoid hype to protect patients from exploitation.

Thrilled with our Preprint - correcting growth in utero after time of diagnosis and reducing fetal AND maternal stress all by treating the placenta. Outstanding work @DavenportBaylea @UFMedicine @UFBioMed @UFMedResearch

@medefercare Please take down this abject nonsense. Mo’iad Alazzam was NOT a founding member of the Oxford Placenta Accreta Team, he operated on a few cases under supervision and he is definitely NOT at the cutting edge of research. I can back up all I have stated so please remove your post

@EndoExplained Sadly not. Lower segment PAS is just as likely as upper segment. It occurs in all full thickness scars wherever they are on the uterus.

AND if the woman is under a regional anaesthetic, it should also be discussed with her.
