Popis: Placenta accreta spectrum is a serious obstetric condition related to abnormal adherence of placental tissue to the myometrium and high maternal and fetal morbidity. In order to achieve the best outcome, the management of this condition must be carried out by an experienced multidisciplinary team and the individual characteristics of the patient must be taken into consideration, such as comorbidities and desire for reproductive preservation. This case report presents the conservative surgical management of placenta accreta spectrum in a 23-year-old patient who underwent an elective caesarean section with uterine preservation because of anterior placenta increta. The authors performed a transverse uterine incision at the fundus with transitory uterine devascularisation of the lower uterine segment with partial myometrial removal. This technique was successful for controlling the haemorrhage and preserving the uterus, with no complications.
