Abstract: Conservative treatment and hysterectomy after cesarean section, which is the gold standard, are applied in placenta accreata spectrum (PAS) with a high maternal mortality rate.Two cases with PAS without placenta previa which was successfully treated conservatively were presented.For diagnosis of PAS obstetricians focus on placenta previa or low-lying placenta and previous C-section history, however, 1/3 of all cases are diagnosed with PAS without placenta previa.The gold standard in the treatment of PAS is hysterectomy.In this case, conservative treatment in tertiary centers has been shown to be succesful.Obstetricians should not just focus on placenta previa.Conservative treatment modalities should be performed in tertiary centers.
