Discovery of a letter from Rokitansky to Virchow about subependymal corpora amylacea.

Christian Andree1, Roland Sedivy.   

Abstract

Until recently, Rokitansky and Virchow were thought to have never exchanged letters. Recently, however, a letter from Rokitansky to Virchow dated 1853 was discovered. In this letter, Rokitansky commented on Virchow's discovery of subependymal corpora amylacea. This report comprises an English translation of this letter together with a historical appraisal and a short comment on the importance of corpora amylacea in the brain.
