Dr Ahmed Loutfi has had two restoration applications rejected, after being struck off the medical register in 2016
A tribunal has now indefinitely suspended his right to reapply to be restored as a practising doctor, after his second application to be reinstated was rejected. In May 2013, while working at Birmingham Women's Hospital, Dr Loutfi was found to have "inappropriately" rotated the baby's head with forceps during childbirth, leaving the baby with a brain injury and depressed skull fracture.During a subsequent investigation, the doctor claimed he had delivered another patient through the same means while being supervised by another doctor, when he knew this was untrue.
Two days later, she was taken to hospital and had a fallopian tube removed after the ectopic pregnancy was discovered. During this delivery it became apparent that the mother's uterus had ruptured and she required an emergency hysterectomy.
