We report the first case of surgically resected pure papillary hyperplasia of the pancreas. Interestingly, it was not associated with chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer. Histologic and immunohistochemical features are described, with a review of the literature on papillary hyperplasia of the pancreas.
