Explanation:
I found some NIH articles with this word. Notice my confidence level. It would have be confirmed by our colleagues here who work in the medical field which is not one of my areas of expertise.

Figure 2: Chest CT angiography on admission. Multiple cavitary lesions in upper lobes and apical segments of lower lobes in communication with the bronquial tree (Figure 2A). Micronodules scattered in different pulmonary lobes with a "tree in bud" pattern. (bronquial disseminated tuberculosis). Hilar and paratracheal **pericentimetric** adenopathies were also identified (Figure 2B).

Explanation:

pericentimetric
not so common, but theoretically possible:

peri-
= a prefix meaning “about” or “around”, and “near” ( perigee, perihelion)


centimetric
= Having dimensions in the order of centimetres

Sim, ele respondeu enquanto eu preparava as referências... mas caso não se sinta confortável em usar "pericentimetric" (que tem menos de 30 referências em toda a internet), acho que in the order of centimetres é uma boa saída.
