fibrous tissue


Explanation:
I wonder if this could be what they are referring to.

The term bronchiolitis obliterans refers to the accumulation of masses or plugs of fibrous, granulation tissue that forms in the small airway tubes of the lungs (bronchioles) blocking (obliterating) the flow of air.
