Cryopreserved embryo transfer is an independent risk factor for placenta accreta.

TL;DR: Cryopreserved ET is a strong independent risk factor for accreta among patients using IVF and/or ICSI, and a threshold endometrial thickness and a "safety window" of optimal peak E2 level are proposed for external validation.

MRI in the diagnosis and surgical management of abnormal placentation

TL;DR: Placental MRI provides excellent characterization of the degree and extension of placental invasion, and its usefulness in cases of adherent placentation is directly associated to the therapeutic measures, especially where dissection maneuvers are needed.

Hysterectomy for placenta accreta; methods for gross and microscopic pathology examination

TL;DR: This protocol facilitates retrospective correlation with surgical and radiographic findings as well as standardized tissue sampling for potential research and can give feedback on the quality of surgical planning and use of imaging.
