Tubercle
Definition:
(n.) A small knoblike prominence or excrescence, whether natural or morbid; as, a tubercle on a plant; a tubercle on a bone; the tubercles appearing on the body in leprosy.
(n.) A small mass or aggregation of morbid matter; especially, the deposit which accompanies scrofula or phthisis.

It is most frequently found in the lungs, causing consumption.
