Oxford Comma
suggestion

"A dinner fork deformity, also known as a bayonet deformity, occurs as the result of a malunited distal radial fracture, usually a Colles fracture. The distal fragment is dorsally angulated, displaced and often also impacted. The term is descriptive, as the lateral view of the wrist resembles the shape of a fork, seen from the side with the tines down."

Line 1:231 · Use the Oxford comma in 'angulated, displaced and often'.
