In contrast to previously published reports of high operative mortality with TVIE, this experience demonstrates improved outcomes with low morbidity and mortality, particularly for native isolated TVIE. Future prospective comparisons between surgically and medically treated patients may help to further define indications and timing for operation for patients with TVIE.
