A prospective randomized comparison of the peri‐operative complications and long‐term sequelae between the Filshie clip and Pomeroy methods was undertaken in 200 postpartum women at Tri‐Service General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan. The peri‐operative complications in either group were mild and infrequent. One pregnancy in the Pomeroy group was reported after follow‐up for 24 months. No significant difference between the two groups was found in respect to long‐term sequelae.
