Low serum levels and high expression in placental bed tissues of IGF-1, or high serum levels and high expression in placental bed tissues of PLGF, may differentiate placenta previa patients with FIGO PAS grade I and PAS grade II from those without PAS disorders. However, they could not significantly predict the degree of placental invasiveness in FIGO PAS grades II and III.
