Decreased serum TSH and TgAb levels, and previous history of cesarean section were all found to be significantly associated with AIP in cases with PPT. We suggest that maternal serum TSH and TgAb levels can provide additional contribution to obstetric Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of AIP and thus can reduce the risks of unplanned cesarean hysterectomy in cases with PPT.
