> Last Monday (October 12, 1998), my wife suffered a miscarriage and
> nearly lost her life during examination at the ob/gyn office. After
> surgery to stop massive bleeding, she was diagnosed having a placenta
> percreta.
>
> According to the ultra-sound technician, the fetus was 8 weeks old. We
> know the age was correct because we had recorded our attempts to
> conceive since our first was born (in March 1998, by emergency c).
>
> We know from discussions with our local doctor and specialists on the
> east coast that a placenta percreta has never been documented to occur
> at less than term.
>
> I am hoping that someone will be able to help us determine how an 8 week
> old fetus developed into a placenta percreta and the chances of carrying
> to term future pregnancies.
>
> Thank you for your help and future assistance.
>
> P.S. The history of this case is avaliable for review upon request.
