Lint: renal-sympathetic-denervation-1

Adjectival Hyphens
error

"Renal sympathetic denervation (RSDN), also known as renal denervation, is an interventional procedure that uses radiofrequency ablation to destroy the nerve endings in the wall of the renal arteries. Endovascular (trans-catheter) techniques are an alternative to surgical sympathectomy."

Line 1:266 · 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: 'trans-catheter)'.
Inline EG
suggestion

"prior renal artery interventions (e.g. stents, angioplasty)"

Line 7:38 · Consider replacing a bracketed e.g. with an inline e.g. after a comma.
