Abstract
A patient with Mediterranean anemia who received many blood transfusions over a period of years is presented. The pigment deposition in Mediterranean anemia, originally thought due to an inherited defect, is attributed to multiple blood transfusions. It is maintained that this abnormal pigment deposition represents another instance of exogenous hemochromatosis.Keywords
