Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Currently, Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) has two treatment options: hysterectomy (completely removing the uterus) and partial myometrial resection (resecting the part of the uterus affected by this pathology).

The present study is a feasibility study of a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial to be carried out in 3 health institutions. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria, after signing the informed consent, will be taken to the surgical procedure and before the start of the procedure they will be randomized to one of the two interventions, hysterectomy or partial myometrial resection, intra-surgical clinical outcomes will be explored and a follow-up will be carried out during the immediate post-surgical period (72 hours), in 7 to 12 days and at 42 days postpartum.

A sample size of 60 patients is estimated among the 3 health institutions, with an approximate duration of the study of 24 months.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Placenta accreta spectrum is a serious condition associated with significant maternal morbidity and even mortality. The recommended treatment is hysterectomy. An alternative is 1-step conservative surgery, which involves the en bloc resection of the myometrium affected by placenta accreta spectrum along with the placenta, followed by uterine reconstruction. Currently, there are no studies comparing the 2 techniques in the setting of a randomized controlled trial.

We performed a prospectively registered multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing hysterectomy with 1-step conservative surgery. The aim was to collect feasibility and clinical outcomes of the 2 techniques in women assigned to hysterectomy or 1step conservative surgery. In addition to assessing participants' willingness to be randomized, we also collected data on intraoperative blood loss, transfusion requirement, serious adverse event, and other clinical outcomes.

Sixty women with strong antenatal suspicion of placenta accreta spectrum were assigned randomly to either hysterectomy (n=31) or 1-step conservative surgery (n=29).

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Eligible women will receive complete information about the study. If they agree to participate in it, they will sign the informed consent for both interventions: hysterectomy and partial myometrial resection. The final modality of intervention will be decided at randomization prior to the start of the surgical procedure.

If the diagnosis of PAS is confirmed by observing the clinical criteria endorsed by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO), the patient's participation in the study is confirmed and the surgical procedure defined by randomization is continued, that is, one of the two arms of the study: Primary hysterectomy or Partial myometrial resection.
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

NONE

This is an open-label study as it is not possible to conceal the surgical procedure for each arm from the operator (Treating Physician) or from the participant

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Hysterectomy

Hysterectomy: An incision will be made above the level of the placenta, delivering the newborn. Uterotonics will be administered, and spontaneous delivery of the placenta will be awaited using gentle traction. The absence of spontaneous separation of the placenta will confirm the diagnosis of PAS, the patient will undergo to hysterectomy. The complete removal of the uterus will be attempted, including the cervix, the duration of the intervention and intraoperative blood loss will be recorded, as well as the damage to organs neighboring the uterus. In this arm of the study, to hysterectomy will be performed in 100% of patients

Hysterectomy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Hysterectomy: An incision will be made above the level of the placenta, delivering the newborn. Uterotonics will be administered, and spontaneous delivery of the placenta will be awaited using gentle traction. The absence of spontaneous separation of the placenta will confirm the diagnosis of PAS, the patient will undergo to hysterectomy. The complete removal of the uterus will be attempted, including the cervix, the duration of the intervention and intraoperative blood loss will be recorded, as well as the damage to organs neighboring the uterus. In this arm of the study, to hysterectomy will be performed in 100% of patients

Partial myometrial resection

Partial myometrial resection: The technique described by Palacios-Jaraquemada et al5. will be followed. Briefly, the uterus will be dissected to free it from the posterior wall of the bladder to the cervix. The vesicouterine vessels will be ligated and the parametrial space will be visualized. The hysterotomy will be performed in the upper segment, immediately above the area of invasion of the myometrium. The entire invaded myometrium and the entire placenta will be removed. The uterus will repair itself in one or two layers. Intrauterine balloon tamponade will be used if indicated.

Partial Myometrial Resection

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Partial myometrial resection: The technique described by Palacios-Jaraquemada et al5. will be followed. Briefly, the uterus will be dissected to free it from the posterior wall of the bladder to the cervix. The vesico-uterine vessels will be ligated and the parametrial space will be visualized. The hysterotomy will be performed in the upper segment, immediately above the area of invasion of the myometrium. The entire invaded myometrium and the entire placenta will be removed. The uterus will repair itself in one or two layers. Intrauterine balloon tamponade will be used if indicated.
