Several causes of sclerosing mesenteritis have been suggested such as trauma, prior surgical procedures, autoimmune diseases such as lupus, IgG4-related disease, rheumatoid arthritis, infections such as tuberculosis, cryptococcosis, schistosomiasis, HIV and medicines such as paroxetine and pergolide but their associations with sclerosing mesenteritis are largely speculative with high degree of ...
Secondary sclerosing cholangitis (SSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease. SSC is a sclerosing cholangitis with a known cause. Alternatively, if no cause can be identified, then primary sclerosing cholangitis is diagnosed. SSC is an aggressive and rare disease with complex and multiple causes.

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD), formerly known as IgG4-related systemic disease, is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by tissue infiltration with lymphocytes and IgG4-secreting plasma cells, various degrees of fibrosis (scarring) and a usually prompt response to oral steroids.
Condensing osteitis, also known as focal sclerosing osteomyelitis, is a rare periapical inflammatory condition characterized by the formation of sclerotic bone near the roots of premolars and molars. This condition arises as a response to dental infections, such as periapical pulp inflammation or low-intensity trauma.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis, a hardening of the bile duct by scarring and repeated inflammation. Systemic sclerosis (progressive systemic scleroderma), a rare, chronic disease which affects the skin, and in some cases also blood vessels and internal organs. Tuberous sclerosis, a rare genetic disease which affects multiple systems.

No effective medical treatment for primary sclerosing cholangitis is known. Its most definitive treatment is a liver transplant, [1] but disease recurrence can occur in 25–30% of cases. [6] PSC is a rare disease and most commonly affects people with IBD. [2]
