Lint: atypical-adenomatous-hyperplasia-of-the-lung

Adjectival Hyphens
error

"Atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) of the lung is a putative precursor lesion of adenocarcinoma of the lung. This entity replaces part of a spectrum of the former bronchoalveolar carcinoma (BAC) and falls under the spectrum of pre-invasive lesions of the lungs."

Line 1:269 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-invasive'.

"Their radiographic appearances can be somewhat variable but have been commonly described as ground-glass nodules (usually pure ground glass) measuring less than 5 mm 3-5, opposed to adenocarcinomas in situ, which are also pre-invasive lesions, that tend to be larger."

Line 5:258 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-invasive'.
