				 Morbidly adherent placenta usually presents with heavy bleeding and difficulty in placental removal in the third stage.

Following this hysterectomy was done, which on histopathology revealed placenta increta away from previous uterine scar site. Pathogenesis in this case for morbidly adherent placentation seems to be resembling that in a woman without any previous uterine surgery or scar, which is quite unusual. We report this case with a brief review of the literature.
