Nurses shouldn't do photos for the patients :
The chief of neurosurgery at Karolinska University Hospital, Mikael Svensson, said the incident was "deeply unfortunate".
"It violates basic ethical codes," he said.
Cameras are banned from operating theatres unless they are intended as teaching aids for students. It appears that the nurse, who is unnamed for legal reasons, used her mobile phone.
The patients could not be identified from the photos, which have now been deleted from her internet page, but staff at the hospital have had an emergency meeting to remind them about patient privacy.
The woman, who has been suspended, is said to be "devastated" by her actions. It seems she wanted to impress her friends with her high powered job.
