The clinical study of high-intensity focused ultrasound for the treatment of 160 cases of postpartum placenta increta
Based on the results of our large-sample study, HIFU appears to be safe and effective in the treatment of postpartum placenta increta. Blood loss volume is associated with the largest diameter of the placenta. The risk of requiring multiple curettage procedures is related to the largest diameter of the placenta, While the interval time between HIFU and suction curettage is a protective factor for reducing curettage times.
