I agree. Looking up the meaning of "conglomeration", I understand how it
could be used to express "tumor".

Funny thing.. I knew of this word for quite some time now, but I thought
that it meant "corporation". hahaha ! And I was thinking, why would
klingons have such a word ? Are there corporations on Qo'noS ?

But I guess, if DIvI' Hol isn't your native language, such
misunderstandings are bound to happen.

Not unless the tumor resembles a rectangular solid, which seems to be the
general shape:

 (Lieven < MO,  9th qepHom'a', 12/2010):  A *ngogh* is a block or lump or
brick. He said he's seen humans eating *yuch ngoghmey* and found that
strange.

(KGT 93):  A particularly popular dish,* tlhombuS*, requires that the cook
coat a block of *tlhagh* [animal fat] with a mixture of *ngat* (herbed
granulated cartilage) and *tIr* (grain) and then briefly immerse the block
into the already boiling fat, just until the coating hardens.
