In the last three to four decades, the increasing caesarean delivery rate has contributed to several fold increment in the incidence of placenta accreta spectrum disorders globally. Placenta accreta spectrum with its subtypes (accreta, increta and percreta) is one of the devastating obstetric complications. As a result, it is the commonest indication for peripartum hysterectomy and common cause of severe maternal morbidity. However, in recent years, there is a growing interest in and practice of expectant management either to minimize emergency hysterectomy related maternal complications or to preserve the fertility potential of a woman with an intact uterus. A large body of observational research findings has demonstrated the success rate of expectant management in many of well selected cases. Similarly, the experience on delayed hysterectomy was encouraging in order to have less hemorrhage. For the best success of placenta accreta spectrum management, multidisciplinary team approach, antenatal diagnosis and managing such cases in a hospital with center of excellence has been strongly recommended. This literature review provides a robust synthesis of up-to-date knowledge and practice on the challenges and successes of placenta accreta spectrum disorders management. The currently practiced management options in the high and middle income countries are also summarized under seven categories. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to shed light on the applicability of the PAS disorder management modalities in our setup.
