Abstract:
The very interesting medical career of Walther Kausch, student of Johannes Mikulicz-Radecki, is portrayed. The first successful partial pancreatoduodenectomy of the world in 1909 was his great surgical feat. The question why Kausch did not go on this promising way will be discussed. In future it would be appropriate to speak of the "Kausch-Whipple-Operation".
