Great Ormond Street Hospital has begun an urgent review of 721 cases of children seen by one of its former consultant orthopaedic surgeons after concerns were raised about his practice.

The hospital trust said the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) was asked to review its paediatric orthopaedic service following accusations about Yaser Jabbar.
