Maternal outcomes of placental abruption with intrauterine fetal death and delivery routes: A nationwide observational study.

Bleeding during delivery was significantly greater in cesarean delivery than that in vaginal delivery in women with placental abruption with intrauterine fetal death. However, severe complications, including maternal death and uterine rupture, occurred in vaginal delivery-related cases. The management of women with placental abruption with intrauterine fetal death should be cautious regardless of the delivery route.
