$content = preg_replace("~(<a href=\"(.*)\">\w+)~iU", '', $content);
$ok = preg_replace("~(</a>)~iU", '', $content);

You can replace the anchors with their contents using DOMDocument:

$html = <<<'EOS'
<a href="xx"><img src="http://example.com"> </a>
<a href="xx"><img src="http://example.com"> </a>
EOS;

$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->loadHTML($html);
$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

foreach ($xpath->query('//a') as $anchor) {
    $fragment = $doc->createDocumentFragment();
    // collecting the child nodes
    foreach ($anchor->childNodes as $node) {
        $fragment->appendChild($node);
    }
    // replace anchor with all child nodes
    $anchor->parentNode->replaceChild($fragment, $anchor);
}

echo $doc->saveHTML();
