Historia de la hidatidología
Una vez, un mono que día a día se iba debilitando tardó en ser diseccionado a causa de nuestras necesarias ocupaciones; cuando murió, todas las demás partes de su cuerpo estaban sanas, pero en la túnica del pericardio había una tumefacción patológica conteniendo un humor semejante al del hidátide. En otra ocasión, un gallo tenía una * tumefacción escirrosa *, sin humor, semejante a muchas membranas espesas superpuestas.”

scirrhous swelling
The technical word for "tumefacción" is in fact "tumefaction", which naturally means "swelling". But just for the record, medical professionals always use more common words (in English I mean).
As for "escirrosa", the term is "scirrhous"
Scirrhous: hard or indurated.
In this case, it means the swelling was actually hard instead of flabby.
Hope it helps!

Por nada, Mónica. Ahora me doy cuenta de que eres de Uruguay, y me río porque contesté en inglés :)

cirrhosed swelling
cirrhosis-related swelling or something like that
a pure guess I'm afraid, but the cirrhosis bit may just help :) - ... or may be a total red herring :(
worth pursuing at least?

: this is not to do with liver disease. Liver cirrhosis - myDr.com.au If your liver is cirrhosed it no longer filters out toxins effectively. .... When the liver is cirrhosed, it does not filter medications as effectively as .../it is still incorrect

I never mentioned the liver! cirrhosis simply means hardening, and can happen anywhere in the body. Cirrhosis of the liver = in oldfashioned layman's terms "hardening of the liver". But in any case this was only meant to get the ball rolling, viz the CR
