Let be a finite combinatorial 2-complex satisfying , and let be a connected CW subcomplex of its universal cover with no missing shells. If the largest cell perimeter is , then is -quasiconvex in the universal cover's unit-edge 1-skeleton. Bound an ambient metric geodesic and an intrinsic metric geodesic of by a reduced disc diagram. A shell on the ambient side would shorten a metric geodesic. A shell on the intrinsic side belongs to and would shorten its intrinsic metric geodesic. Spurs are likewise excluded from side interiors. The Greendlinger ladder theorem forces a ladder between the two marked corners. Each cell gives a path of length at most half its perimeter from either side to the other.
