I may be wrong, but this just doesn't seem quite right. I've copied and pasted the definition from my Stedman's electronic dictionary.

xanthochromia

The occurrence of patches of yellow color in the skin, resembling xanthoma, but without the nodules or plates. Syn: yellow disease, yellow skin(1), xanthoderma(1).
