Hundreds of patients are to be recalled by a hospital after concerns were raised about shoulder operations.

Some of those patients have lost the use of their arm after surgery by Mian Munawar Shah at Walsall Manor Hospital, the BBC has reported.

Mr Shah has been suspended as up to 600 patients are set to be contacted.

Footage shows Walsall Manor Hospital on 26 September as an internal review is carried out.

The hospital trust has set up a helpline and will send hundreds of letters to patients who may have been affected.

In 2020, Walsall Healthcare Trust contacted the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) which carried out a general review of surgery and then a further review into Mr Shah's individual work.

A recall of his patients was recommended by the RCS.

The helpline number set up by Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust is 01922 604631 and the trust can also be contacted via email: walsall.helpline@nhs.net
