Selected
jejunum slightly more globose/slightly increased jejunal globosity
This ligeira should be written as an adverb, ligeriamente.
Not pretty sure about globose for globoso, but the meaning is this.
Or you could use slightly increased jejunal globosity.

: Re: link: Apparently, the web page translator thought ‘dura’ (adj.) might as well be translated as ‘lasts’ (vb. ‘last’, 3rd person singular).

lasts here is a noun and not a verb, T o b i a s. Pls do your homework. Lasts are things that come last, such as... when the belly is bloated. Sean is from the UK so Im sure he knows that.
