The process of concreting; the process of uniting or of becoming united, as particles of matter into a mass; solidification.

A mass or nodule of solid matter formed by growing together, by congelation, condensation, coagulation, induration, etc.; a clot; a lump; a calculus.

A rounded mass or nodule produced by an aggregation of the material around a center; as, the calcareous concretions common in beds of clay.

The act or process of forming into a solid mass; the act of covering something with concrete; a hardened mass.

Act of concreting; mass concreted.

The act of concreting; a hardened mass.

The act of concreting; a mass concreted.

The act of growing together; a mass formed by the union of various parts adhering to each other.

The act of becoming thick or solid. It was once used synonymously with adhesion or growing together- as, "concreation of the toes." Mostly commonly, it is applied to extraneous and inorganic bodies, of a solid character, met with in different textures, after certain chronic inflammations; or which make their appearance in the joints or in the reservoirs for excrementitial fluids. Concretion is, therefore, frequently synonymous with Calculus, and is then rendered, in Latin, by the word Concrementum. But Concretion has a more extensive signification than Calculus; thus, accidental ossifications or deposits of phosphate of lime in certain organs, and especially in the liver and lungs, are properly called osseus concretions. They could not well be called osseous calculi.

Calculus.

Abnormal union of parts adjacent.

A growing together of separate parts, also the formation of a concrement.

A concrement formed upon a nucleus of desquamated cells, clumped bacteria, mucus, or precipitated albumen or a foreign body and consisting of cholesterin, bilirubin, uric acid, urates, phosphates, cystin, or other rarer materials. The forms are: urinary, biliary, and the pancreatic. They are found in the gall-bladder and bile ducts, the urinary tract, the pancreatic duct, and, more rarely, in the salivary duct and intestines. [Lat.]

n. Act of concreting; —the mass or solid matter formed by congelation, condensation, or other like process.

The act of concreting, coalition; the mass formed by a coalition of separate particles.
