WHAT DOES NEPHROSIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Nephrosis

Nephrosis refers to a non-inflammatory nephropathy. Also known as nephrotic syndrome, nephrosis is any degenerative disease of the renal tubules. Nephrosis can be caused by kidney disease, or it may be secondary to another disorder. It should not be confused with nephritis, where inflammation is implied. However, some sources equate nephrosis with nephropathy. It can also be used to indicate an emphasis on the renal tubule. Examples include amyloid nephrosis and osmotic nephrosis.

Definition of nephrosis in the English dictionary
