Placenta previa occur when the placenta is situated completely or its part into the lower uterine segment. Placenta
previa can give rise to bleeding either during pregnancy, during labour or following delivery. Transvaginal
sonography is most accurate method to diagnose placenta previa. Due to the fact that since one part of the placenta
is partially detached, while the other part of placenta has grown into the uterus, postpartum haemorrhage with
lethal outcome may occur, unless the mother is hospitalized. Such complications can be prevented by legal
abortions. Placenta previa prevents a safe vaginal delivery and requires the delivery of the neonate to be via
caesarean delivery
