A member asked:

How likely is placenta acretta when diagnosed with partial placenta previa at 14 weeks and had a c-section with my 1st pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Depends on wether the placenta is anterior . . . On the side toward the scar . . . Or posterior. If anterior, the risk of accreta is about 5%. If posterior the risk will be less.
