Some many consider this hand as noten, despite needing one tile for completion.  However, that one tile is one among the tiles called for kan.  The hand is also [[karaten]], or impossible to complete.  All possible tiles for completion are used with the dubious [[kan]] call.  So, instead of gaining points, the player loses points at ryuukyoku.
