Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

"Bronze" skin is a common sign of hemochromatosis, also known as "bronze diabetes." This occurs due to the buildup of excess iron in the body, leading to skin pigmentation changes. Iron-deficiency anemia and megaloblastic anemia are not associated with hemochromatosis, and blocked bile ducts are more commonly seen in other liver diseases.
