Oxford Comma
suggestion

"At histologic examination, a urethral diverticulum demonstrates marked inflammation of the transitional epithelial mucosa, which overlies a thinned circumferential diverticular wall. This wall consists of fibromuscular tissue, with or without an inner epithelial lining 3."

Line 25:223 · Use the Oxford comma in 'tissue, with or without'.
Semicolons
suggestion

"Those with ongoing/severe symptoms are treated operatively 1; the common surgical treatment for urethral diverticulum is transvaginal diverticulectomy 3,4. Excellent surgical results can be obtained, and complications are minimal 1. Voiding cystourethrography is performed two weeks after surgery to evaluate for urethral healing and the presence of postoperative complications 3."

Line 85:75 · Use semicolons judiciously.
