Diagnosis of low‐lying placenta: can migration in the third trimester predict outcome?
Open accessAbstract
Objectives: To investigate the relationship between the rate of migration of a low‐lying placenta during the third trimester and the eventual route of delivery. Methods: All patients with a placenta lying within 3 cm of the internal cervical os or overlapping it on transvaginal ultrasound at ≥ 26 weeks' gestation were included in the study. The exact distance between the center of the internal cervical os and the leading edge of the placenta was measured by transvaginal sonography, repeated at approximately 4‐week intervals until delivery. Results: The mean rates of migration in patients who had (n = 7) and who did not have (n = 29) Cesarean section for placenta previa were +0.3 mm/week and +5.4 mm/week, respectively (P < 0.0001). When the placental edge was initially > 20 mm from the internal os, migration occurred in all cases and no Cesarean section for placenta previa was performed. For those between −20 mm and +20 mm, sufficient migration to avoid Cesarean section occurred in 88.5% of cases. Beyond a 20 mm overlap, significant placental migration did not occur and all patients required Cesarean section. Conclusion: Placental migration may occur progressively throughout the third trimester. The initial position of the placental edge and the subsequent rate of migration can be used to predict the eventual route of delivery.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
