Abstract
Placenta Percreta with invasion of the urinary blader is a rare condition, which carries a high morbidity and mortality risk for mother and fetus. We present a case which illustrates some of the complexities of perioperative management. Anaesthetic considerations include those of the pregnant patient and fetus, potential need for massive transfusion, and possible development of coagulopathy. Ideally, these cases should be diagnosed early enough in pregnancy to allow a multidisciplinary team approach to the management of mother and fetus. The perioperative care of a patient with placenta previa is complicated but, with a multidisciplinary approach, may be successful. La placenta percreta avec envahissement de la vessie est une condition rare qui comporte un risque élevé de morbidité et de mortalité tant pour la mère que pour le foetus. Les auteurs présente un cas qui illustre les complexités de sa gestion périopératoire. L’anesthésiste doit tenir compte de la relation entre la parturiente et son enfant, du besoin potentiel de transfusions massives, et de l’apparition possible d’une coagulopathie. Idéalement, ces cas devraient être diagnostiqués assez précocement pendant la grossesse pour permettre une prise en charge pluridisciplinaire de la mère et de son foetus. La prise en charge d’une parturiente souffrant d’un placenta percreta est compliquée mais ne peut être couronnée de succès que si quand on adopte une approche multidisciplinaire.Keywords
