RESUMO
The posterior lumbotomy was a useful approached for removal of a small kidney, for bilateral nephrectomy in patients with chronic renal failure, for pyeloplasty, for pyelolithotomy when a stone was filled the pelvis and was not able to migrated, or for an upper ureterolithotomy when the stone was firmly impacted. During a 32 month interval 19 patients underwent upper ureterolithotomy through the posterior lumbotomy approach. The intraoperative course and postoperative performance were compared to the patients operated upon using the standard flank incision. Our analysis established the superiority of the posterior lumbotomy incision for all factors evaluated, especially postoperative drainage, analgesic use and postoperative hospitalization.

Testicular teratomas are germ cell neoplasms that consist of tissue derived from ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm in various stages of maturation. The teratomas are subclassified into mature teratoma, immature teratoma, and malignant teratoma. depending on the appearance and maturity of the various components. Prognosis is directly related to maturity of the tissue. Recently we experienced two cases of testicular teratoma, so we report these two cases of testicular teratoma with review of literature.
