Uterine Rupture With Placenta Percreta Following Multiple Adenomyomectomies

Pregnancy following adenomyomectomy is challenging because uterine rupture or placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is more likely to occur; however, optimal management has not yet been established. We herein present a case of uterine rupture with placenta percreta in a pregnant woman who underwent adenomyomectomy twice before pregnancy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed in the second trimester and imminent uterine rupture concomitant with PAS was suspected. The patient was immediately admitted to hospital for careful management. Although failed tocolysis forced delivery at 29 weeks of gestation, managed hospitalization allowed cesarean hysterectomy to be performed uneventfully. Extensive PAS was proven pathologically in the removed uterus. Pregnancies following multiple adenomyomectomies are considered to be high-risk. Therefore, a sufficient explanation of the risks associated with future pregnancies is needed, particularly following second adenomyomectomy.
