Possible synonyms that describe this condition include "an osmotic kidney injury," "renal osmotic damage," and "osmotic nephropathy." Another possible term is "acute hyperoncotic renal failure," referring to the condition's rapid onset and the role of oncotic pressure in the damage process.

Regardless of the term, osmotic nephrosis is a serious medical condition that requires prompt diagnosis and intervention.
