The Placenta Previa that is found in pregnant women is a very serious problem. This condition causes excessive bleeding during labor. Often, anemia can cost the life of a pregnant woman. The removal of uterus is the only option remains in such condition. However in the last 2 years, the doctors of J.J. hospital have saved 52 pregnant women’s wombs of Placenta Previa and given them happiness of enjoying the motherhood once again.
Placenta Previa is one such procedure that develops in the womb of a pregnant lady, which provides the baby with all the needed nutrients and enough oxygen supply. This placenta is attached to the baby through the fetus. Typically this placenta develops in the connected state of the uterus. But, in some cases, this placenta develops in such a way that it completely covers the open mouth of the cervix. Therefore, the mother develops large amounts of bleeding during the first month or during labor.
The removal of the uterus on ‘placenta previa’ is the only option remains but the doctors have tried to save the life of the uterus and the woman by giving stitch to the below area of the uterus. This procedure used by the doctor succeeded in saving many women’s uterus. In the last two years, the doctors have saved 52 pregnant women’s uterus with this procedure.
Prof. Dr. Ashok Anand, Head of the department of gynecology and obstetrics department, J.J. hospital; spoke to ‘My Mahanagar’ that Placenta Previa’ is a very serious condition in pregnancy. Moreover, now this problem seems to be growing in pregnant women.
Remedies taken on the very serious problem of ‘Pleasanta Previa’
In order to prevent bleeding, the uterus must be removed after the delivery. Earlier in 99% of the cases, the uterus used to be removed but due to that woman could not be pregnant again. In November 2017, we decided to do stitching in the below area of the uterus. In this, after the delivery, the bladder is pushed down the uterus, and then it is tightened from both sides. This stops bleeding and can save the uterus. This is only a 10 minute process. In the last two years we have been successful in treating 52 pregnant women and protecting their cervix.
