Comments:
In hemochromatosis, non-neoplastic hepatocytes may show marked hemosiderin deposition (granular golden brown cytoplasmic pigment), which can be distinguished from bile by positive iron staining. Note the reactive nuclear atypia (enlargement, prominent nucleoli) in these non-neoplastic hepatocytes.
