Liz is correct about 'occluding'. In my understanding, the "totalidad" is referring to the 5 cm distance between 30 and 35 cm up from the anal margin. In other words, there is a 5 cm stretch of the abdominal wall that is covered with a lesion (lesions?) with both infiltrating/ulcerative and proliferative characteristics. The proliferative part is partially reducing the diameter of (presumably) the passageway, though we don't know for sure until we know what follows "calibre de la ..."
