German term or phrase: Weichteilprozess
This is taken from a medical report about a cancer patient:

In Höhe der Carina zeigt sich ein ausgeprägter Weichteilprozess mit einer mittleren axialen Ausdehnung von 4 x 2 cm mit Vorwachsen wachsend kranial des linken Hauptbronchus in das mediastinale Fettgewebe.

I'm unsure how to translate "Prozess" here.

agree  uyuni: 'Mass' rather than 'growth' // Auch wieder wahr :-)

  -> Depends on shape, IMO. A sheet-like, multifocal or very irregular 'Prozess' would be called growth rather than mass, while a lump-type 'Prozess' would likely be called a mass.

agree  Lirka: I totally agree, but would go with "lesion". it's everybody's "darling".
