RESUMEN
A 61-year-old woman was referred to Srinagarind Hospital Khon Kaen University because of SVC obstruction. Echocardiography revealed a sizable tumor in RA, RV. outflow tract, main pulmonary artery and right pulmonary artery. All parts of the tumor were successfully excised and the patient was recovered uneventfully. The histological examination of the tumor revealed liposarcoma. This report emphasizes that intracardiac tumor, liposarcoma, should be included in differential diagnosis of SVC obstruction syndrome.

Three cases of paralytic rabies are reported. The important presenting symptoms were generalized muscle weakness and hyporeflexia without history of dog bites. Clinical progression resembling myelitis with low sugar profile in CSF is presented in one case. Percussion myoedema and fasciculation are useful physical signs for differentiation the paralytic rabies from Guillain-Barre-Syndrome and ascending myelitis.
