Disease lookup on death record

[Hiel Lindquist]

Hello,
I have a question on the cause of death on a death record.  I have searched the websites of old disease terms and have not been able to find anything that looks similar to the words on this record.
 
The record is for my great grandfather, who died quite young.  
GID 100015.95.12600 Anders Lind (August Jönasson) died 28 Dec 1872 in Blidsberg.  It looks like some type of cancer, but I am not sure.

Svamp i högra knäet = Sponge in his right knee  
probably some type of cancer as you sugested

thanks for your help.  Between my lack of knowledge of the Swedish language and the poor quality of the record, that one was hard to figure out.
