Explanation:
Or simply, "fissure" (spalte).

"Tumorvekst krysser lappespalten." = "Tumor growth across the fissure."

lapp = lobe
spalte = fissure

Lobes and fissures which separate these lobes are parts of the lung. In humans the lungs have three lobes on each side.

Fra Store norske leksikon:
"Spalter som går inn til lungeroten, deler lungene i lapper, tre i høyre og to i venstre lunge. "
