"Treatment is generally with oophorectomy, and if distant metastases are present, postoperative chemotherapy. Chemotherapeutic retroconversion is a phenomenon where the teratoma or its metastasis post-chemotherapy become more histologically mature than the primary lesion."

Line 28:199 · 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: 'post-chemotherapy'.

Oxford Comma
suggestion

"Macroscopically, immature teratomas are large, encapsulated masses which have a prominent solid component. As well as this, they may feature many of the components seen in a mature teratoma, such as hair, cartilage, bone and calcification."

Line 8:209 · Use the Oxford comma in 'cartilage, bone and calcification'.

"Immature teratoma may metastasise to the peritoneum, liver or lung. Metastasis to the brain has also been reported 7."

Line 22:45 · Use the Oxford comma in 'peritoneum, liver or lung'.
