Hemochromatosis with bridging fibrosis.
Trichrome shows thin fibrous bands (Row 1 Left 20X). Iron stain shows dense iron deposition (Row 1 Right 40X). At high power, a modest inflammatory infiltrate accompanies proliferating bile ductules; no piecemeal necrosis (Row 2 Left 400X). Reticulin stain with regenerative findings, cords with two nuclei thickness, hepatic acini (Row 2 right 400X, higher pixel photo).

Hemochromatosis with cirrhosis..
Fibrous bands dissect hepatocyte nodules (Row 1 Left 20X). Iron stain shows 4+ iron, identifiable at the lowest magnification, as well by naked eye (Row 1 Right 20X) This nodule has occasionally enlarged nuclei, which should not be considered dysplasia in and of itself. Note associated relatively inflammation free band with proliferated bile ductules. (Row 2 Left 400X). Reticulin stain shows two cell thick regenerative cords with sinusoidal black lines lacking orientation (Row 2 Right 400X).
