Hi everyone, is there a comma in this sentence, or no?

"No evidence of intracranial hematoma, or mass effect."

It looks right to me either way. Aargh!

No comma is necessary in this case--there are only 2 items.

Thanks kkb, it makes perfect sense. I tend to second guess myself and then completely overthink everything...

Basic stuff I know, but I've been out of school for more years than I care to even think about, so any help would be appreciated

Thanks
