The doctor is saying that the tumour has infiltrated into the intestines to such an extent that it is now a concrete like mass of hard tissue.
He requires a colonoscopy to bypass the mess, as no food or stool will pass through it.
You could use the term concretization but be aware that it is a metaphor, not real concrete! ;-)

Sorry, I mean colostomy, not colonoscopy.

I'm assuming it's the occlusion intestinale (liée à un syndrome tumoral pelvien) that is avec bétonnage. The bétonnage is indeed minor, but caused by the other problems. No? A tumour might be as hard as concrete, but would one say it hardENS like concrete. It's a growing thing, as opposed to fecal matter which, I presume, hardens as it dries out if blocked long enough in the intestine.

: I'm afraid he has something worse than a fecolith, Bourth!//No Bourth, hardened stool is the least of his problems. It is the tumour itself which has created a concrete like block. I have seen such things - a disaster. He is using a metaphor not a simile

Definitely! But see my reasoning above./IOW, I'm talking fecaloma!
