Hei! I have a medical text about a patient with lung cancer that contains this word, the context is below:
".. basale pleura .. to trådformede vevsbiter med lengde 22 mm, samt en del fnokk legges i blokk 1-1."
I just can't find any definition to fit this, can anyone help?
Just shout if you need more context.
Mvh,
Alison.
