I. INTRODUCTION PLACENTA ACCRETA The abnormal adherence of the chorionic villi (vascular fingers of the chorion‚ a part of the placenta) to the myometrium (the muscle of the uterus). Normally‚ there is tissue intervening between the chorionic villi and the myometrium but in placenta accreta‚ these vascular processes of the chorion grow directly in the myometrium. Placenta accreta occurs when your placenta attaches too firmly to the inside wall of your uterus. This is a rare disorder‚ occurring

The ulnar nerve is formed from the medial cord nerve roots of C7-T1. Originating in the brachial plexus‚ it descends down the arm before passing around the medial epicondyle of the elbow (the so-called funny bone) and then passes between the heads of flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU). It gives some cutaneous branches just before the wrist whilst the motor branches pass around the hook of hamate. Its motor contribution is to all small muscles of the hand except the lateral two lumbricals as well as FCU
