Sclerosing mesenteritis (SM) is a chronic nonspecific mesenteric inflammation. I report a case of a 72-year-old male treated with etanercept for psoriatic arthritis for 7 years who developed abdominal discomfort, urinary retention, acute kidney injury, and bilateral ureteric obstruction. CT abdomen revealed retroperitoneal mass. Biopsy showed sclerosing mesenteritis. One year later, after discontinuation of etanercept, CT abdomen showed regression of the mass. To my knowledge, this is first case report of reversible sclerosing mesenteritis associated with etanercept therapy.

We report 2 cases of inguinoscrotal hernias involving urologic organs. The first case involved an elderly gentleman with a history of micturition by squeezing his scrotum. He was diagnosed as having a right-sided indirect inguinal hernia involving the right ureter and bladder. Treatment was surgical. The second case involved an achondroplastic male who presented with acute kidney injury. He had bilateral hydronephrosis and ureteric obstruction secondary to an ureteroinguinal herniation bilaterally. The presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of inguinoscrotal hernias involving the bladder and ureters are discussed.
