non-toxic metal that is not&#160;absorbed by the intestine&#46; The&#160;substance&#8217;s package leaflet in our&#160;country does not allude to the&#160;phenomenon of its appearance in&#160;radiology images&#46; This is not the case&#160;in the USA&#8217;s version&#44; which states that&#160;&#8220;radio-opaque images may appear in&#160;abdominal radiographies of patients&#160;who consume lanthanum&#8221;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1 </span>The most&#160;commonly reported adverse reactions&#160;were gastrointestinal&#44; but the clinical&#160;trials did not include patients with&#160;intestinal obstructions or inflammatory&#160;intestinal disease&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2&#160;</span>We present the case of a 58-year old&#160;man with pan-colonic diverticulosis&#160;and frequent diverticulitis episodes&#160;with CKD secondary to diabetic&#160;nephropathy who began a periodic haemodialysis programme in April&#160;2001&#46; He was admitted in July 2008 for&#160;fever and abdominal pain&#46; An&#160;emergency abdominal CT ruled out&#160;signs of diverticulitis&#44; but the&#160;radiologist reported &#8220;remnants of&#160;contrast in the entire colon and&#160;terminal ileum&#8221; &#40;figure 1&#41;&#44; which was&#160;confirmed by a simple abdominal x-ray&#160;&#40;figure 2&#41;&#46; Our patient had not received&#160;any radiological contrast at any time&#44;&#160;but he had been receiving treatment&#160;with 3000mg lanthanum carbonate&#160;daily for severe hyperphosphataemia&#160;since February of that year&#44; with&#160;excellent lab results and good clinical&#160;tolerance up to that moment&#46; The final&#160;diagnosis was sepsis due to <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Enterococo&#160;avium</span>&#44; most likely of intestinal origin&#46;&#160;Since there were no other findings in&#160;the imaging tests that could explain the&#160;abdominal pain&#44; lanthanum treatment&#160;was discontinued&#44; after which the&#160;patient remained asymptomatic&#46;&#160;With a view to studying the findings&#44; a&#160;simple abdominal radiograph was&#160;taken in another patient receiving the&#160;same dose of that metal and who had&#160;not had any digestive symptoms&#46; The&#160;deposit was also observed throughout&#160;the contour of the colon&#44; but showed a&#160;different radiological pattern &#40;figure 3&#41;&#46;&#160;References in the literature describing&#160;this phenomenon are scarce and&#160;contain various explanations&#46;&#160;According to our research&#44; the first&#160;radiological image attributed to&#160;lanthanum consumption was shown by&#160;Cerny and Kunzendorf<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3 </span>in 2006&#46; In this&#160;case&#44; the drug was discontinued&#160;because after seeing the radiography&#44;&#160;doctors felt that the patient&#8217;s abdominal&#160;pain could be related with the&#160;lanthanum&#46; Other cases were&#160;subsequently reported&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4 </span>David et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5&#160;</span>interpreted the radiograph as an&#160;intestinal deposit of calcium phosphate&#160;stones that prove lanthanum&#8217;s&#160;effectiveness as a binder&#44; and even&#160;suggest that such an image could be&#160;used as a test of therapeutic&#160;compliance&#46; That theory is refuted by&#160;Pafcugova et al&#46;&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6 </span>who showed that the&#160;tablets themselves inside a vial are radio-opaque&#44; in absence of calcium or&#160;phosphorus&#46; However&#44; given our&#160;limited experience with the use of this&#160;drug&#44; particularly in Spain&#44; it is still not&#160;clear what the radiographical&#160;distribution pattern is in the abdomen&#44;&#160;or whether it can be observed in all&#160;patients receiving this medication&#46;&#160;Vrigneaud et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7 </span>studied 13 patients&#160;treated with lanthanum&#46; In six&#44; the&#160;abdominal radiograph is completely&#160;normal&#44; while in the rest&#44; the radioopaque&#160;deposit may be observed&#46;&#160;However&#44; in contrast with the habitual&#160;images with opaque areas smaller than&#160;one centimetre distributed regularly&#160;throughout the contour of the colon&#44; we&#160;found two cases in which the areas&#160;were larger and irregularly distributed&#160;along the digestive tract&#46; These were in&#160;one patient who did not chew the&#160;tablets correctly&#44; and another patient&#160;with colonic diverticulosis whose&#160;profile suggests the material was&#160;deposited in the diverticuli&#44; as with the&#160;present case&#46;&#160;Our conclusion is that although little&#160;data exists about the radiological&#160;behaviour of intestinal lanthanum&#160;carbonate deposits&#44; it is necessary to&#160;know that it is radio-opaque&#46;&#160;Furthermore&#44; it is likely that the drug&#160;should be used cautiously in patients&#160;with intestinal diseases&#46; In addition&#44; we&#160;do not know its elimination time&#44;&#160;which is crucial information when it&#160;comes to performing other imaging&#160;studies without interferences&#46; And&#160;lastly&#44; we believe that all of the above&#160;should be included in the drug&#8217;s&#160;technical leaflet printed in Spain&#46;&#160;&#160;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">&#160;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a href="grande&#47;10343108&#95;a23&#95;f1&#46;jpg" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><img src="10343108_a23_f1.jpg" alt="Abdominal CT without contrast showing the lanthanum carbonate deposit in the sigmoid colon diverticuli and rectum&#46;"></img></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Figure 1&#46;

non-toxic metal that is not&#160;absorbed by the intestine&#46; The&#160;substance&#8217;s package leaflet in our&#160;country does not allude to the&#160;phenomenon of its appearance in&#160;radiology images&#46; This is not the case&#160;in the USA&#8217;s version&#44; which states that&#160;&#8220;radio-opaque images may appear in&#160;abdominal radiographies of patients&#160;who consume lanthanum&#8221;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1 </span>The most&#160;commonly reported adverse reactions&#160;were gastrointestinal&#44; but the clinical&#160;trials did not include patients with&#160;intestinal obstructions or inflammatory&#160;intestinal disease&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2&#160;</span>We present the case of a 58-year old&#160;man with pan-colonic diverticulosis&#160;and frequent diverticulitis episodes&#160;with CKD secondary to diabetic&#160;nephropathy who began a periodic haemodialysis programme in April&#160;2001&#46; He was admitted in July 2008 for&#160;fever and abdominal pain&#46; An&#160;emergency abdominal CT ruled out&#160;signs of diverticulitis&#44; but the&#160;radiologist reported &#8220;remnants of&#160;contrast in the entire colon and&#160;terminal ileum&#8221; &#40;figure 1&#41;&#44; which was&#160;confirmed by a simple abdominal x-ray&#160;&#40;figure 2&#41;&#46; Our patient had not received&#160;any radiological contrast at any time&#44;&#160;but he had been receiving treatment&#160;with 3000mg lanthanum carbonate&#160;daily for severe hyperphosphataemia&#160;since February of that year&#44; with&#160;excellent lab results and good clinical&#160;tolerance up to that moment&#46; The final&#160;diagnosis was sepsis due to <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Enterococo&#160;avium</span>&#44; most likely of intestinal origin&#46;&#160;Since there were no other findings in&#160;the imaging tests that could explain the&#160;abdominal pain&#44; lanthanum treatment&#160;was discontinued&#44; after which the&#160;patient remained asymptomatic&#46;&#160;With a view to studying the findings&#44; a&#160;simple abdominal radiograph was&#160;taken in another patient receiving the&#160;same dose of that metal and who had&#160;not had any digestive symptoms&#46; The&#160;deposit was also observed throughout&#160;the contour of the colon&#44; but showed a&#160;different radiological pattern &#40;figure 3&#41;&#46;&#160;References in the literature describing&#160;this phenomenon are scarce and&#160;contain various explanations&#46;&#160;According to our research&#44; the first&#160;radiological image attributed to&#160;lanthanum consumption was shown by&#160;Cerny and Kunzendorf<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3 </span>in 2006&#46; In this&#160;case&#44; the drug was discontinued&#160;because after seeing the radiography&#44;&#160;doctors felt that the patient&#8217;s abdominal&#160;pain could be related with the&#160;lanthanum&#46; Other cases were&#160;subsequently reported&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4 </span>David et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5&#160;</span>interpreted the radiograph as an&#160;intestinal deposit of calcium phosphate&#160;stones that prove lanthanum&#8217;s&#160;effectiveness as a binder&#44; and even&#160;suggest that such an image could be&#160;used as a test of therapeutic&#160;compliance&#46; That theory is refuted by&#160;Pafcugova et al&#46;&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6 </span>who showed that the&#160;tablets themselves inside a vial are radio-opaque&#44; in absence of calcium or&#160;phosphorus&#46; However&#44; given our&#160;limited experience with the use of this&#160;drug&#44; particularly in Spain&#44; it is still not&#160;clear what the radiographical&#160;distribution pattern is in the abdomen&#44;&#160;or whether it can be observed in all&#160;patients receiving this medication&#46;&#160;Vrigneaud et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7 </span>studied 13 patients&#160;treated with lanthanum&#46; In six&#44; the&#160;abdominal radiograph is completely&#160;normal&#44; while in the rest&#44; the radioopaque&#160;deposit may be observed&#46;&#160;However&#44; in contrast with the habitual&#160;images with opaque areas smaller than&#160;one centimetre distributed regularly&#160;throughout the contour of the colon&#44; we&#160;found two cases in which the areas&#160;were larger and irregularly distributed&#160;along the digestive tract&#46; These were in&#160;one patient who did not chew the&#160;tablets correctly&#44; and another patient&#160;with colonic diverticulosis whose&#160;profile suggests the material was&#160;deposited in the diverticuli&#44; as with the&#160;present case&#46;&#160;Our conclusion is that although little&#160;data exists about the radiological&#160;behaviour of intestinal lanthanum&#160;carbonate deposits&#44; it is necessary to&#160;know that it is radio-opaque&#46;&#160;Furthermore&#44; it is likely that the drug&#160;should be used cautiously in patients&#160;with intestinal diseases&#46; In addition&#44; we&#160;do not know its elimination time&#44;&#160;which is crucial information when it&#160;comes to performing other imaging&#160;studies without interferences&#46; And&#160;lastly&#44; we believe that all of the above&#160;should be included in the drug&#8217;s&#160;technical leaflet printed in Spain&#46;&#160;&#160;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">&#160;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a href="grande&#47;10343108&#95;a23&#95;f1&#46;jpg" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><img src="10343108_a23_f1.jpg" alt="Abdominal CT without contrast showing the lanthanum carbonate deposit in the sigmoid colon diverticuli and rectum&#46;"></img></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Figure 1&#46;
