Baumgarten-Tangl law
Associated persons:
Paul Clemens von Baumgarten
Franz Tangl
Description:
A law concerning the localisation of tuberculosis: At the point where the infecting tubercle bacillus penetrates, it also causes the first changes. Histologically these consist of unspecific inflammatory appearances. This law elaborates the Parrot-Cornet rule and was first reported by Tangl in 1890 and confirmed by von Baumgarten in 1905 on the basis of extensive experiments and clinical observations.
