"The tumours are usually hormonally inert 4 and in their pure form are not associated with endocrine hormone secretion. However, syncytiotrophoblastic giant cells, which produce HCG, are present in 5% of dysgerminomas and can cause elevation of serum HCG levels. LDH can also be raised making it useful in diagnosis and post-operative follow-up of ovarian dysgerminoma 6."

Line 11:192 · 'HCG' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.
