Objective : Conservation of uterus in case of central morbidly adherent placenta previa. Materials and Methods : Out of 23 cases studied five cases of placenta previa with 5 morbidly adherent placenta. Mode of delivery, whether morbidly adherent, outcome. Results : Incidence of placenta previa is 0.5 to 1% in pregnancy. Whenever there is a previous scar on uterus the incidence increases. It is the obstetrician's nightmare to have a case of central placenta previa with morbidly adherent placenta because of eminent danger of PPH, caesarian hysterectomy. Using USG examination and Doppler studies we, now can predict whether the placenta is morbidly adherent or not.
