[Conservative management of a percreta placenta involving the omentum].
We present the case of a percreta placenta involving the omentum, occurring in a patient with two uterine scars, diagnosed by chance during a scheduled caesarian. A conservative management of the uterus but radical for the placenta was made possible because of the invasion of the free edge of the omentum, not described in the literature until then. The postoperative course was uneventful. The question of the antanatal diagnosis and of the management of this potentially serious pathology is discussed in front of the international literature.
