Okay, I admit I am a bit confused. The context for this sentence is as follows:
"Pathologische Veränderungen wurden an Knochenmark und Testikeln beobachtet".
Now as far as I know, Knochenmark can mean both medulla and bone marrow. Considering these are "pathological variances" we´re talking about here in the sentence, I was ready to assume that it meant the medulla...but then "Testikeln" threw me off. Maybe I am just having a slow day...who knows!
Also, anyone know whether they mean "observe" or rather "keep track of" with the word beobachten in this sentence...?
Thanks a million as usual! :)

medulla
Knochenmark is bone marrow, but just Mark for medulla

I think "observe" would be "bemerkt" or "sind aufgefallen"
