[Rokitansky and Virchow--the giants of pathology in disputatio].
On the occasion of the bicentenary of Carl Rokitanskys birth, I was kindly asked to review the relationship between the two great pathologists, Rokitansky and Virchow. As Virchow specialist and editor of the first complete edition of his work, I found the task of writing about their relationship particularly interesting. Although much has written on the subject, I tried to find new points to further illuminate their relationship.
