The effects of catecholamine excess due to pheochromocytoma on body composition, including skeletal muscle mass, are unknown. Here, we investigated the effects of catecholamine metabolites on body composition in subjects with pheochromocytoma. After body compositions using bioelectrical impedance analysis, urinary metanephrine (UM), and urinary normetanephrine (UNM) were measured in 16 patients with pheochromocytoma and 224 patients with nonfunctioning adrenal incidentaloma (NFAI), we compared skeletal muscle mass and fat mass (FM) between the two groups. After adjustments for confounders, UM (=-0.171, P=0.006) and UNM (=-0.249, P
