Insert Punctuation as required.

1. After a Maylard incision was made through the abdomen a retractor was used for visualization of the pelvic contents.

Answer:
comma after abdomen.

Right again! You're on a roll!

To determine where to insert punctuation in the provided sentence, we need to consider the structure and flow of the sentence. In this case, we have a compound sentence with two clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction "a retractor was used."

To indicate a pause and separate the two clauses, we need to insert a comma after the word "abdomen." Therefore, the revised sentence should be:

"After a Maylard incision was made through the abdomen, a retractor was used for visualization of the pelvic contents."
