    Abstract Perforations of the cervical esophagus are infrequent severe conditions associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality if misdiagnosed. The diagnosis and management of cervical esophageal perforation remains a challenging clinical problem. We aimed to present our experience of the etiology, presentation, management and outcome of cervical esophageal perforation in a 10 years period. In this cross-sectional study, we reviewed the records of all patients with a diagnosis of cervical esophageal perforation admitted at the teaching Razi Hospital of Rasht, north of Iran, between 2001 and 2011. 26 patients (15 male) were studied with mean age of 47.6 ± 13.78 years, a range from 10 to 68 years. Only 16 (61.5 %) of patients were referred within 24 h of injury. The etiology was iatrogenic in 15 cases (57.69 %), foreign body ingestion in 7 cases (26.9 %), and penetrating traumatic injury in 4 cases (15.4 %). The common clinical manifestations of perforation were neck pain in 22 cases (84.6 %), fever in 19 cases (73.1 %), and subcutaneous emphysema in 12 cases (46.2 %). Barium and gastrografin swallow were performed in 57.7 and 23.1 % of patients, respectively and flexible esophagoscopy was used in 23.06 %. Most of patients (65.4 %) were managed by primary repair. Overall, mortality rate was 7.7 %. Our study demonstrates that the most common cause of cervical esophageal perforation is iatrogenic injury. Clinical suspicion is most important problem. Furthermore, Diagnosis is mainly made by Barium and gastrografin swallow. For a successful outcome, primary repair is a preferred treatment for most perforation patients.

    Abstract Background: Measurement of serum β-hCG concentration commonly used to diagnose tubal ectopic pregnancy (EP) and follow up patients treated conservatively.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of maternal serum β-hCG concentration in ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy to help physicians identify those women who are at greatest risk.
    Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted on all women with a diagnosis of tubal ectopic pregnancy who were treated in Alzahra Hospital, in Rasht, from March 2002 to February 2011. The data was collected for each woman from medical records and included age, parity, gravidia, gestational age, primary level of serum β-hCG, rupture status, past history of pelvic inflammation disease, EP, abortion, and intrauterine contraceptive device use. Women with tubal rupture were compared to those without rupture. Statistical analysis was conducted by SPSS 19 for Windows.
    Results: A total of 247 cases of tubal ectopic pregnancy were recorded during the study period. One hundred and ninety seven (79.8%) were cases with unruptured EP and 50 patients (20.2 %) were cases with ruptured EP. The mean level of β-hCG was significantly higher in patients with ruptured EP compared to patients with unruptured EP (p=0.03). Logistic regression analysis revealed that >1750 IU/ml of β-hCG levels (OR: 1.41; 95% CI: 1.18-1.68) was the significant risk factors for tubal rupture.
    Conclusion: Higher β-hCG levels seem to be significant risk factors for rupture of a tubal EP.
