Non hemochromatotic liver siderosis often present an heterogeneous iron distribution, but histological scoring of iron overload are validated only in case of genetic hemochromatosis, where iron is homogeneously distributed. The aim of this work was to study the improvement of histological scoring by introducing a coefficient of heterogeneity in cases of heterogeneous liver siderosis. Thus, on 254 liver biopsies with siderosis were determined: i) the histologic total iron score (TIS) as previously described; ii) the coefficient of heterogeneity, leading to corrected TIS (corTIS); iii) the liver iron content (LIC). Liver siderosis was homogeneously distributed in 160 biopsies and heterogeneously distributed in 94. Correlation between histological scoring and LIC, in the group with heterogeneous liver siderosis, was improved by the use of the coefficient of heterogeneity. This coefficient leads to accurately quantify all liver siderosis.
