Friedrich Wilhelm Zahn (14 February 1845 – 1904) was a German-Swiss pathologist born in Germersheim. His eponyms include Zahn infarct and lines of Zahn.[1]

He studied medicine at the University of Strasbourg under Friedrich Daniel von Recklinghausen (1833-1910), becoming an associate professor of pathological anatomy in Geneva in 1876.

He published works on the circulatory system (blood, thrombosis, embolism, arterial disease, etc.) and on tumors.[2] With Georg Albert Lücke (1829-1894), he published an influential treatise involving surgery of tumors, Chirurgie der Geschwülste. Other noted writings by Zahn include:

  • Zur Lehre von der Entzündung und Eiterung. Mit besonderer Berücksichtigung der durch das Mikrosporon septicum hervorgerufenen Erscheinungen, 1872 - The doctrine of inflammation and suppuration.
  • Tumeur de la partie supérieure du fémur : désarticulation de la hanche, (with Jacques-Louis Reverdin 1842-1929), 1881 - Tumor of the upper part of the femur.
  • Beiträge zur Geschwulstlehre (six parts) - Contribution to the study of tumors.[3]
