Cesarean scar defects encompass a spectrum of separation of the uterine layers that increase risk of uterine rupture during labor and delivery. When coupled with the presence of placenta accreta spectrum, a condition characterized by abnormal adherence to or invasion of the myometrium by the placenta, the risk of life-threatening hemorrhage significantly increases. As rates of cesarean delivery increase, it is important to understand the imaging findings typical of both conditions. We present the case of a 30-year-old patient with a dichorionic, diamniotic twin gestation complicated by uterine window and placenta accreta spectrum.

Ovarian Cycle01:27

Ovarian Cycle

The menstrual cycle includes a critical component known as the ovarian cycle, which undergoes two main phases each month—the follicular phase and the luteal phase. The follicular phase is variable and averaging around 14 days. Ovulation, triggered by a surge in luteinizing hormone (LH), marks the transition between the two phases. The second phase, the luteal phase, is relatively consistent, lasting approximately 14 days, and is marked by the activity of the corpus luteum. While a cycle...

Teratogenicity01:07

Teratogenicity

The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...
