The global incidence of placenta accreta spectrum is increasing rapidly, mirroring the trend of increased cesarean delivery. We report a case series of four patients diagnosed with placenta percreta who presented to a single unit of the department of obstetrics and gynecology at a tertiary care center in North India from March 2024 to May 2024 with a pathologically proven diagnosis. In all cases, a hysterectomy was the outcome. We have included cases with prenatal diagnoses in this case series. For appropriate planning, a prenatal diagnosis of placenta percreta is necessary, as the multidisciplinary team's approach is particularly beneficial. After DJ stenting, elective surgery was scheduled in one of the four instances.
