This is the first report of placenta percreta diagnosed after an extended period from pregnancy termination. CASE: A woman with a history of a previous cesarean section presented with heavy and irregular vaginal bleeding beginning immediately after pregnancy termination at 7 weeks' gestation. Failed response to hormonal treatment and curettage necessitated hysterectomy. Histologic examination revealed a placenta percreta. CONCLUSION: Although placenta percreta is an uncommon occurrence, clinicians should consider it in patients who have a uterotomy scar and complain of longterm metrorrhagia following pregnancy termination.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPlacental DisordersAbortionInducedPlacenta Percreta1st TrimesterRuptureAccretaUterusArticle518662664Q4WOS:00024004360001316967639
