Oxford Comma

suggestion

"cancer of the appendix, caecum or ascending colon (most common) ¹"

Line 4:25 · Use the Oxford comma in 'appendix, caecum or ascending'.

"The appendix, caecum and ascending colon will be absent, and other mobile abdominal structures may have moved to fill the resulting space ³. The anastomosis is generally found in the mid-abdomen but will depend on the extent to which the transverse colon was mobilised during the operation. The anastomosis may be more prominent if staples are used to divide and anastomose the bowel, but hand-sewn anastomoses will not be so visible. The ileocaecal valve will not be present so the reflux of colonic contents into the ileum will be possible."

Line 18:11 · Use the Oxford comma in 'appendix, caecum and ascending'.

Inline EG

suggestion

"injury to adjacent structures (e.g. ureter, duodenum)"

Line 22:38 · Consider replacing a bracketed e.g. with an inline e.g. after a comma.
