Topological changes of the Fermi surface under pressure may cause anomalies in low-temperature elastic properties. Our density functional calculations for elemental osmium evidence that this metal undergoes three such Lifshitz transitions in the pressure range between 70 and $130\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GPa}$. The related elastic anomalies are, however, invisibly weak. The critical pressures considerably exceed the values for recently measured and calculated anomalies in the pressure $(P)$ dependence of the hexagonal $c∕a$ lattice parameter ratio close to $25\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GPa}$. We demonstrate that the latter anomalies are statistically not significant and that $(c∕a)$ $(P)$ can be fitted equally well by a smooth dependence.
