Popis: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and fetal complications. Placenta percreta, involving placental attachment to another organ, is a rare but severe placental abnormality. We report a 26-year-old woman, G2P1, with a 6-year history of SLE with coexisting pernicious placenta previa and placenta percreta detected by second trimester ultrasound. She discontinued prednisone 5 months before admission, without consultation, and active SLE was diagnosed on admission. Because of her progressive condition, the patient underwent infrarenal abdominal aorta balloon occlusion and double J ureteral catheter placement, followed by elective cesarean at 27+6weeks gestation. Despite aggressive management, she experienced severe bleeding requiring internal iliac artery ligation and peripartum hysterectomy. The placenta had penetrated the uterus walls and attached to the bladder apex, necessitating bladder repair. Thrombosis was detected in the common iliac artery and common femoral artery in the right leg 1 day postoperatively. Conservative antithrombotic therapy had little effect, and embolectomy by arteriotomy was performed on the 6th post-cesarean day, and an arterial thrombus was removed. Infrarenal abdominal aorta balloon occlusion may increase the risk of postoperative thrombosis in pregnant women with active SLE and coagulation disorders. These patients therefore require close monitoring and timely anticoagulation.
