Health chiefs have suspended a specialist liver surgeon linked to the "avoidable deaths" of eight patients he operated on in Cardiff.
Consultant surgeon Prof David Paul Berry was based at the University Hospital of Wales.
A professional review of 31 of his patients found that 10 died, and "eight of those 10 deaths were avoidable".
The Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has issued "unreserved apologies" to every family affected.
