A 22-year-old G4P2 at 35 weeks gestation presents to the hospital after she noticed that "her water broke." Her prenatal course is unremarkable, but her obstetric history includes postpartum hemorrhage after her third pregnancy, attributed to a retained placenta. The patient undergoes augmentation of labor with oxytocin and within four hours delivers a male infant with Apgar scores of 8 and 9 at 1 and 5 minutes, respectively. Three minutes later, the placenta passes the vagina, but a smooth mass attached to the placenta continues to follow. Her temperature is 98.6°F (37°C), blood pressure is 110/70 mmHg, pulse is 90/min, and respirations are 20/min. What is the most likely complication in the absence of intervention?
