Abstract
Placenta percreta is a disorder of placental implantation that significantly increases maternal and fetal morbidity and is characterized by plasental villi invasion to the myometrium, serosa and, rarely, the bladder, penetrating through the decidual layer. Here, we report a 33-year-old patient in the 24th week of gestation, diagnosed with placenta percreta with bladder invasion, and we present a brief review of the literature.
