Prophylactic internal iliac artery balloon for caesarean in placenta accreta reduces haemoglobin drop – Retrospective comparative study
Prophylactic IIABO during caesarean delivery for PAS is associated with less haemoglobin drop and higher postoperative haemoglobin. IIABO under local anaesthesia was feasible, possibly reducing risks tied to extended general anaesthesia. Larger studies are recommended to support the role of IIABO in PAS disorders.
