Primary pancreatic paragangliomas are rare. They are mainly non-functional tumours that lack typical clinical manifestations. Definite diagnosis relies on histopathology and immunohistochemistry, and the main treatment is surgery. We report here a case of primary, non-functional, pancreatic paraganglioma in a 49-year-old woman. The tumour was approximately 5.0 × 3.2 ×4.7 cm in size and located in the pancreatic neck and body. We undertook 3D laparoscopic complete resection of the tumour. The patient developed a pancreatic fistula (biochemical leak) post-surgery, but she recovered and was discharged from hospital 11 days after surgery. We describe this case study and briefly summarize previous related reports.
