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).

But it would be unusual to just state "no air in the rectum" unless the doctor is discussing a bowel obstruction or something similar. Can you give us more context?
