D efinition — An increase in thickness of the epithelial layer, occasionally forming papillary tufts within the tubal lumen.
Papillary hyperplasia is an uncommon entity, and no associations have been made regarding incidence or predisposing factors. They have some resemblance to borderline serous tumors and have been proposed as a potential precursor to these tumors. However, they are not associated with most borderline tumors.
