Inclusion criteria were women with placenta previa minor (&lt;\u200920\u2009mm from the internal cervical os) or placenta previa major (covering the os), aged\u2009\u2265\u200918\u2009years, who underwent transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound assessment at \u2265\u200926\u2009+\u20090\u2009weeks of gestation. The primary outcome was the occurrence of emergency CD, defined as the need for immediate surgical intervention performed for emergency maternal or fetal indication, including active labor, cumulative maternal bleeding &gt;\u2009500\u2009mL, severe and persistent vaginal bleeding such that maternal hemodynamic stability could not be achieved or maintained, or category\u2010III fetal heart rate tracing unresponsive to resuscitative measures. The primary outcome was reported separately in the population of women with placenta previa and no PAS confirmed after birth and in those with PAS. The secondary aim was to report on the strength of association and to test the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound in predicting emergency CD. Univariate, multivariate and diagnostic accuracy analyses were used to analyze the data.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 450 women, including 97 women with placenta previa and PAS and 353 with placenta previa only, were analyzed. In women with placenta previa and PAS, emergency CD was required in 20.6% (95%\u2009CI, 14\u201330%), and 60.0% (12\/20) delivered before 34\u2009weeks of gestation. The mean gestational age at delivery was 32.3\u2009\u00b1\u20092.7\u2009weeks in women undergoing emergency CD and 34.9\u2009\u00b1\u20091.8\u2009weeks in those undergoing elective CD (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).

On univariate analysis, the presence of interrupted retroplacental space, interrupted bladder line and placental lacunae was more common in women not experiencing emergency CD. No comprehensive multivariate analysis could be performed in this subgroup of women. Ultrasound signs of PAS, including presence of interrupted retroplacental space, interrupted bladder line and placental lacunae, were not predictive of emergency CD. In women with placenta previa but no PAS, emergency CD was required in 31.2% (95%\u2009CI, 26.6\u201336.2%), and 32.7% (36\/110) delivered before 34\u2009weeks of gestation.
