Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the risk factors of persistent cesarean scar pregnancy (PCSP) after dilation and curettage (D&C). Materials and methods: A retrospective, age-matched case–control study including 45 cases of PCSP patients after D&C was conducted between January 2013 and April 2018. For each case, 4 women who had been diagnosed with CSP and had the same age and same hospitalization period as the case group but no residual CSP tissue after D&C were selected as the controls (Control group, n = 180). Conditional logistic regression analysis was used to assess the risk factors of PCSP after D&C. Results: After conditional logistic regression, the 3 factors associated with PCSP after D&C were maximum diameter of CSP mass (or gestational sac) ≥4.5 cm (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 6.51, 95% CI 1.39–30.47), myometrial thickness at the implantation site
