Franz Karl Ludwig Wilhelm von Winckel (5 June 1837 – 31 December 1911) was a German gynecologist and obstetrician who was a native of Berleburg.
In 1860 he received his medical doctorate from Berlin, later becoming a professor of gynecology in Rostock (1864). In 1872 he became director of the Königlichen Landesentbindungsschule in Dresden, and from 1883 onward, was director of the Frauenklinik at the University of Munich.[1] Among his students and assistants at Munich was gynecologist Josef Albert Amann (1866–1919).
His name is lent to "Winckel's disease", a disease originally described in the epidemic form in 1879. It has been referred to as "epidemic hemoglobinuria of the newborn".[2] His name is also associated with a birthing maneuver known as the "Wigand-Martin-Winckel-Handgriff". The procedure is named in conjunction with Justus Heinrich Wigand (1769–1817) and August Eduard Martin (1847–1933).
He was the first president of the Deutschen Gesellschaft für Gynäkologie und Geburtshilfe (German Society for Gynecology and Obstetrics).[3]
