    Women with a prior cesarean section (C.S.) face a doubled risk of placenta previa. This risk is highest in the pregnancy immediately after a C.S., with a higher incidence of morbidly adherent placenta also noted.

    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

    Background:

    • Previous cesarean section (C.S.) is a common obstetric procedure.
    • The relationship between prior C.S. and placental complications requires further investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the incidence of placenta previa in women with a history of cesarean section.
    • To assess the risk of morbidly adherent placenta in this patient group.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of data from January 1973 to December 1978.
    • Comparison of placenta previa incidence in women with and without previous C.S.

    Main Results:

    • The incidence of placenta previa was 3.9% in women with previous C.S. versus 1.9% overall (p < 0.01).

  • The risk of placenta previa was significantly elevated in the pregnancy immediately following a C.S.
  • A higher incidence of morbidly adherent placenta was observed in women with prior C.S.

    • Conclusions:

    • Previous cesarean section is a significant risk factor for developing placenta previa.
    • Women with a history of C.S. should be closely monitored for placental complications in subsequent pregnancies.
