A mum whose daughter was among more than 200 patients "harmed" after being operated on by a now-suspended NHS surgeon says she has lost trust in the hospital that treated her.

Of the 209 patients who "experienced harm" under the care of orthopaedic surgeon Kuldeep Stohr at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, 41 were classed as severe and one person died, as first reported by the BBC on Monday.

Lynn, whose 13-year-old daughter Tammy was among the first to receive findings from an independent investigation last year, said the number of patients involved was "ridiculous".

The hospital trust said it was "deeply sorry". Stohr previously said she was fully co-operating with an investigation.

An ongoing review by the Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH) has looked into the care of more than 900 patients so far.

Many of the cases investigated in the review involved children operated on by Stohr.

The figures were published in a report prepared for the trust's board of directors and was published on its website ahead of a meeting on Wednesday.

The trust removed the report after it was contacted by the BBC for comment.
