tonsillar beds

Explanation:

Taste disturbance may result from injury to the lingual branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve (LBGN) during tonsillectomy. Because an understanding of the anatomy of this nerve is required in order to avoid injuring it, a gross, histologic anatomic study was undertaken of the topographical relationship between the LBGN and the muscle layer of the palatine tonsillar bed

Illustration of both 'tonsillelosjer'.

Also, if you consider that nyrelosjer = renal beds then I think it is safe to assume that 'losjer' means beds in this instance too.
