Introduction:The incidence of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) has increased, but the optimal management and the optimal way to achieve vascular control are still controversial. This study aims to compare maternal outcomes between different methods of vascular control in surgical PAS management. Material and methods: A retrospective cohort study on consecutive cases diagnosed with PAS between 2013 and 2020 in single tertiary hospital. The final diagnosis of PAS was made following preoperative ultrasound and confirmation during surgery. Management of PAS using cesarean hysterectomy with internal iliac artery ligation (IIAL) was compared with two types of vascular control in uterine conservativeresective surgery (IIAL vs identification-ligation of the upper vesical, upper vaginal, and uterine arteries).Results: Over an 8-year period, 234 pregnant women were diagnosed with PAS meeting the inclusion criteria. Uterine conservative-resective surgery (200 cases) was associated with lower mean blood loss compared with cesarean hysterectomy with IIAL (34 cases) in all PAS cases (1379 ± 769 mL vs 3168 ± 1916 mL; p < 0.001). In subanalysis of the two uterine conservative-resective surgery subgroups, the group with identification-ligation of the upper vesical, upper vaginal, and uterine arteries had a significantly lower blood loss compared with uterine conservative-resective surgery with IIAL (1307 ± 743 mL vs 1701 ± 813 mL; p = 0.005). Women in the hysterectomy with IIAL group had more massive transfusion (35.3% vs 2.5%; p < 0.001; odds ratio[OR] 21.3, 95% confidence interval [CI] 6.9-66), major blood loss (>1500 mL) (70.6% vs 34%, p < 0.001; OR 4.7; 95% CI 2.1-10.3), catastrophic blood loss (>2500 mL)

Objectives. This study is aimed at evaluating the maternal and perinatal characteristics and pregnancy outcomes of ES. Material and Methods. This is a retrospective cohort study of pregnancy with Eisenmenger syndrome (ES) in Dr. Soetomo Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019. Total sampling size was obtained. We collected all baseline maternal-perinatal characteristic data, cardiac status, and pregnancy outcomes as primary outcomes. The maternal death cases were also evaluated, and we compared characteristics based on defect size (< or >3 cm). Results. During study periods, we collected 18 cases with ES from a total of 152 pregnancies with heart disease. The underlying heart disease type includes atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricle septal defect (VSD), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). All cases suffered pulmonary hypertension (PH), 3 cases moderate, and 15 cases as severe. 94% of cases fall into heart failure (DC FC NYHA III-IV) during treatment. The majority of cases are delivered by cesarean section (88.9%). Pregnancy complications found include preterm birth (78%), low birthweight (94%), intrauterine growth restriction (55%), oligohydramnios (16%), severe preeclampsia (33%), and placenta previa (5.5%). Large defect group has an older maternal ages ( 30.18 ± 4.60 vs. 24.15 ± 2.75 ; p = 0.002 ), higher clinical sign (100 vs. 40%, p = 0.003 ), and higher preterm delivery rate (100% vs. 69%, p = 0.047 ) compared to small defect groups. The R to L or bidirectional shunt is significantly higher at the large defect group (13 vs. 5 cases, p = 0.006 , 95% confidence interval: -1.156 to -0.228). There were seven maternal death cases caused by shock cardiogenic. Conclusions. Pregnancy with ES is still associated with very high maternal neonatal mortality and morbidity. The larger defect size is correlated with clinical performances and pregnancy outcomes. Effective preconception counseling is the best strategy to reduce the risk of maternal and neonatal death in ES women.

Objective: To compare the level of serum heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), soluble FMS like tyrosine kinase (sFlt-1), and neonatal outcome in early onset preeclampsia (EO-PE), late onset preeclampsia (LO-PE), and normal pregnancy (NP). Methods: In this prospective observational case control study, HO-1 and sFlt-1 levels were measured in blood samples within 24 h of hospital admission. Preeclampsia cases were divided into two groups based on gestational age at delivery: EO-PE (<34 weeks) and LO-PE (≥34 weeks). A total of 45 patients were involved in this study. Result: Maternal serum level of sFlt-1 was higher in EO-PE than LO-PE and NP groups (mean ± SD; 14.50 ± 17.12 ng/ml vs 5.20 ± 6.69 ng/ml vs 2.72 ± 1.2 ng/ml [p = 0.020]. Maternal serum level of HO-1 was not different between EO-PE, LO-PE, and NP groups (p = 0.681). Birthweights were significantly lower in the EO-PE group compared with the LO-PE and NP groups (1580 ± 536 g vs 2635 ± 578 g vs 3010 ± 371 g [p = 0.000]). The rate of small for gestational age infant (26.7% vs 6.7% vs 0%; p = 0.046) and perinatal death (20% vs 0 vs 0; p = 0.037) was also significantly higher in EO-PE compared to LO-PE and NP. The maternal sFlt-1 level was negatively correlated with birthweight (p = 0.006; CC = −0.445). Conclusion: This study did not find a correlation between maternal HO-1 levels and sFlt-1 levels. Maternal serum sFLt-1 levels in preeclampsia were higher in EO-PE and were associated with a worse perinatal outcome.
