    AbstractPhaeochromocytomas are catecholamine-producing neuroendocrine tumors that may manifest in many ways, specifically as sustained or paroxysmal hypertension. Data, including data from mental status screening, were prospectively collected from suspected patients. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was used as a screening tool to identify abnormal mental status. Results showed phaeochromocytoma patients were more likely to experience anxiety and depression. For future phaeochromocytoma treatment, early screening for anxiety and depression should be recommended.Copyright © 2021 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
