Background Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is a severe obstetric condition characterized by abnormal placental trophoblast invasion into the myometrium, leading to significant maternal morbidity and mortality. While imaging remains the cornerstone of prenatal diagnosis, limitations in sensitivity and availability necessitate the exploration of adjunctive biomarkers. Dysregulation of angiogenic pathways has been implicated in PAS pathogenesis. To evaluate maternal serum levels of angiogenic biomarkers—placental growth factor (PlGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1)—and to compare their expression between PAS and normal pregnancies. Methods This prospective case–control study was conducted at RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang between March and November 2025. Eighty-eight pregnant women were enrolled, comprising 44 PAS cases and 44 gestational age–matched controls with normal placentation. Maternal serum samples were collected at 32–34 weeks of gestation and analyzed for PlGF, VEGF, and sFlt-1 using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Demographic, obstetric, ultrasound, laboratory, and neonatal data were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using appropriate parametric and non-parametric tests, with p
