Wilhelm von Leube

Wilhelm Olivier von Leube (born September 14, 1842 in Ulm ; † May 16, 1922 at Montfort Castle on Lake Constance ) was a German pathologist, internist and neurologist.

Leube, son of the Ulm doctor Wilhelm Leube , studied medicine in Tübingen (with Felix Niemeyer ) and Zurich (with Wilhelm Griesinger ) from 1861 to 1865 , then in Berlin in 1866 . During his studies in 1861 he became a member of the Germania Tübingen fraternity . Leube received his doctorate in 1866. In 1867 he attended lectures in chemistry in Munich and worked from 1868 to 1872 as the first assistant to Hugo von Ziemssen at the medical clinic and as a private lecturer at the University of Erlangen , where he completed his habilitation in 1868 and was later appointed associate professor.

In 1872 he was appointed to the full professorship of special pathology and therapy at the University of Jena , at the same time he was director of the medical clinic there. In 1874 he moved to Erlangen, where he was prorector of the university in 1883/84. In 1885 he finally became professor of pathology and therapy at the Julius Maximilians University of Würzburg and director of the medical clinic there. In 1895/96 Leube was rector of the University of Würzburg. In 1882 he was elected a member of the Leopoldina . In 1900 he was chairman of the Society of German Natural Scientists and Doctors .

Leube earned special services in the treatment of gastric and intestinal diseases with a gastric tube and gastric pump . In addition, together with Isidor Rosenthal (1836–1915) he developed the Leube-Rosenthal meat solution as a particularly stomach-friendly food. It was beef that had been turned into a soft mass by overheating and treating it with hydrochloric acid .

In Würzburg, Leube also made a contribution to paediatrics . He was head of the children's department at the Juliusspital Würzburg , which had been saved from closure by his predecessor Carl Gerhardt (1833–1902). Leube continued the lectures and exercises in the field of paediatrics as an integral part of the semester plan of the Würzburg University.

In 1902, Privy Councilor Wilhelm von Leube bought Montfort Castle in Langenargen from the previous owner, Prince Friedrich Karl von Hessen -Kassel-Rumpenheim.

Leube's daughter Wally married the later commander of the Bavarian State Police, Hans von Seisser .
