case_images: Sagittal T2-weighted magnetic resonance image of the uterus at 22+4 weeks of gestation. The myometrium is extremely thin throughout the uterus with partial bulging of the anterior uterine wall (arrowheads).

case_images: Partial bulging of the anterior uterine wall was also noted, implying the presence of placenta accreta (Figure 1).
case_images: Sagittal contrast-enhanced computed tomographic image of the uterus on the 10th postpartum day. The retained placenta is circumscribed by a dashed line. Note that the placenta is enhanced by contrast medium in a patchy manner.

case_images: Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed the persistence of a significant placental blood supply (Figure 2).
case_images: Sagittal ultrasound image of the uterus on the 115th postpartum day. The placenta has become undetectable in the uterine cavity. Note that myometrial thickness has returned to normal.

case_images: Her serum hCG levels became lower than the cut-off value on the 87th postpartum day, and complete resorption of the residual placenta was ultrasonographically verified on the 115th day postpartum (Figure 3).
