Something Old, Something New & Something Borrowed. BJOG. 2021 Jan 04;: Authors: Fox K, Collins S Abstract Surgical management of Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is, if anything, wrought with complexity. Placental invasion can be confined and relatively easy to manage or as surgically challenging as a Stage IV ovarian tumor. In the most extensive cases, the placenta is equally capable of encasing not only the ureter, but also the femoral vessels and obturator nerve, but instead of solid tumor, the surgeon is faced with a mixed solid-cystic structure that behaves like a large arteriovenous fistula until the blood supply from the uterine arteries and collaterals from the bladder are controlled.
