ABSTRACT
Morbidly adherent placenta is a rare clinical condition resulting from abnormally invasive implantation of the placenta into the uterine substance and potentially into the surrounding organs [percreta]. We report a case of invasive placentation extending through the uterine wall into the bladder and causing primary and recurrent secondary postpartum hemorrhage. It is emphasized that to avoid catastrophic complications, efforts to reach an early antenatal diagnosis should be made through various imaging modalities available in patients with a history of lower segment caesarean section
