Abstract
Placenta accreta is associated with significant maternal morbidity and is the leading indication for peripartum hysterectomy. In our institution, occlusion balloon catheters are commonly placed in bilateral common iliac arteries in order to reduce blood loss and facilitate surgery in patients with this obstetric complication. Few studies, however, have evaluated the effect of different anesthetic methods for cesarean hysterectomy on neonatal outcome. In this study, we compared Apgar scores among neonates born to mothers under general anesthesia with those who received regional anesthesia.
