Abdominal computed tomography (CT) was obtained in a patient for evaluation of a colon mass. The CT showed a slight dilatation of the right renal pelvis with no hydronephrosis, but inguinal herniation of the right ureter, which was dilated to 7 mm and looped inside the inguinal hernia with enlarged insert on the left (highlighted in the Figure within the white box and shown to the right). The arrow in the Figure insert points to the herniated and dilated right ureter.
