Abstract

Background: Abnormally invasive placenta (AIP) is a term that describes cases in which there is complete or partial failure of separation of the placenta from the uterine wall following delivery of the fetus. Objective: to detect the role of bilateral internal iliac artery ligation in minimizing blood loss, prior to performing Cesarean Hysterectomy in cases with confirmed preoperative or intraoperative diagnosis of Abnormally invasive placenta. Patients and Methods: The study was carried out at Ain shams university maternity hospital in 2019. Women were recruited from the labor ward who underwent CS Hysterectomy. The total number of pregnant women enrolled in the study was 95 women. Approval from the Medical Ethics Committee were obtained. Results: Our study showed that internal iliac artery ligation in CS hysterectomy cases for AIP has non significant lower blood loss than cases who did not underwent internal iliac artery ligation. In stead, it had increased the operative time. In comparison of 45 patients underwent internal iliac artery ligation and 45 without ligation blood loss was non significantly lower in the group who underwent ligation with mean 1933 ml blood loss in comparison with 2117 ml in the group who did not. Conclusion: Bilateral internal iliac artery ligation, in cases of AIP undergoing caesarean hysterectomy, is not recommended for routine practice to minimize blood loss intraoperatively.
