The London hospital trust launched an urgent review of the care of 721 children seen by consultant orthopaedic surgeon Yaser Jabbar, 43.
Great Ormond Street is facing mounting pressure to publish a report about a 'rogue' surgeon who left children with serious injuries - as it was revealed today he has been ditched from a top conference in Dubai .
It comes after MailOnline revealed Jabbar, who currently lives in Dubai, had been due to speak at a major medical conference this week and was continuing to operate on children and adults at at least two major hospitals in the region. Read MoreEXCLUSIVE 'Rogue' Great Ormond Street surgeon 'ditched' from top Dubai conference after botched operations The trust for Great Ormond Street commissioned an external review of its paediatric orthopaedic service in 2022 'after concerns were raised by a number of our patient families and staff'.
But this morning Jabbar was removed from the website of a major conference he was due to speak at in Dubai this week, as well as disappearing from the hospitals' websites where he had been lauded as 'one of the best'. Both hospitals Jabbar was working at have also wiped him from their sites since MailOnline got in contact with them on Sunday.
It made no mention of the reasons for his departure, but did publish a long list of operations he could perform for both adults and children. 'My understanding is that report does address some of the departmental failures and details some of the reports that were made by staff. 'But I think in terms of the wider departmental issues of what was actually going on at the trust and governance, that's where I think they could be more transparent.
