Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the outcomes of high-intensity focused ultrasound in managing placenta increta with a focus on uterine versus fertility preservation.
Assessed outcomes related to uterine preservation and fertility preservation in treated cases.
Individuals were stratified based on risk to tailor management strategies.
HIFU resulted in successful uterine preservation in 80% of cases (p<0.05).
Fertility preservation was achieved in 65% of treated individuals.
No major complications were reported post-treatment.

Implication

Demonstrates different outcomes for uterine and fertility preservation in placenta increta, suggesting tailored approaches are important.
