Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is among the most severe iatrogenic complications of cesarean delivery (CD) and is associated with a high risk of severe hemorrhage, uterine rupture, and progression towards placenta accreta spectrum disorders. Prenatal diagnosis of CSP has been recently standardized through a modified Delphi consensus, which also allows risk stratification according of this anomaly. However, several issues on the management of CSP are still under debate. The aim of the present review is to provide an up-to-date on the diagnosis and management of CSP.
