A trust chief executive said he will not step down after a report outlined a catalogue of missed opportunities to act over a surgeon accused of botching children’s operations.

An independent review commissioned by Cambridge University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (CUH) found 32 chances to identify and avoid possible harm to patients under the care of Ms Kuldeep Stohr at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, dating back to when she started her role in 2012.
