| -requiring the opening of the sternum or of the thoracic cavity. instead of -requiring the opening of the sternum or the thoracic cavity. Or is the sentence completely wrong??? Thanks Last edited by lori_martinz; 11-Mar-2008 at 16:38. Reason: clear the meaning |

| What are you actually trying to say? You would access the thoracic cavity through the sternum, or by using rib retractors. Why else would you open the sternum? |

Can I omit the particle "of" in the second object? Is the grammar construction correct? thanks |

| Purely grammatically, yes, it is preferable to omit the second 'of'. |
