neutral  Elisabeth Ghysels: "hydropic nephrosis" occurs only once on Google and only about five times on Medline, and all of these texts are from Russian origine. I wonder whether it's not just hydronephrosis, but also in Russian you have гидронефроз.

dropsical nephrosis


Explanation:
Dropsy: Abnormal swelling of the body or part of the body due to the build-up of clear watery fluid. Edema (swelling), often caused by kidney or heart disease.
Nephrosis = Kidney degeneration.
Hydropsy = The full name of dropsy, hence - hydropic

neutral  David Mitchell: Actually, the term most encountered appears to be nephrotic edema.... It would appear that hydrops and hydropic are used nowadays almost entirely for fetal syndromes...

hydronephrosis


Explanation:
Like Elisabeth Ghysels, I found hydropic nephrosis only in Russian sites and dictionaries. There, distinction is made between 'гидремический' and 'гидропический' - hydronephrosis and hydropic nephrosis respectively. In a termcode index that I have come across, only hydronephrosis is listed.
Regarding hydropyonephrosis, it is analogous to pyelitis.

neutral  David Mitchell: Hydronephrosis is caused by blockage of the ureters and is a urine-retention problem... So there is significant difference between that and the hydrops-induced problem.

  -> Thank you. Yet if you could offer a couple of references on that, I would be really grateful.
