[Theodor Kocher and Zurich].
Theodor Kocher was linked to Zurich by many relationships. It was in this town that he spent his last semester at university, and his contacts with his teachers Friedrich Horner and Theodor Billroth were of some importance with regard to his election as a professor at Berne. Kocher was on friendly terms with his Zurich colleagues Rudolf Ulrich Krönlein and Ferdinand Sauerbruch. In spite of many common views, however, the two Swiss surgeons Kocher and Krönlein were not always of the same opinion.
