Adjectival Hyphens

error

"Along the pelvic side wall, the vein travels between the ureter and the internal iliac artery before terminating by draining into the internal iliac vein ¹. A cadaveric study of 150 hemi-pelvises found the obturator vein to be the most inferior structure of the obturator neurovascular bundle in 47% of specimens ²."

Line 4:218 · 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: 'hemi-pelvises'.
