Untitled[edit]

I'm baffled by the following:

"Walter Karl Koch was a German surgeon ... best known for the Tawara's node, the atrioventricular node which is the beginning of his bundle about the auricular-ventricular."

First of all, exactly WHAT about the Tawara's node is he best-known for? Discovering it? Naming it? Researching it????

And what does "the beginning of his bundle" mean? Should it read "the beginning of the bundle?" And BUNDLE OF WHAT?Sara Parks Ricker


Removed a lot of misleading content[edit]

After studying the literature and writing a German-language article, I have removed numerous statements here; Koch was neither a surgeon nor is he credited in the literature with the discovery of the aforementioned structures. According to his curriculum vitae, he also did not work in Heidelberg, but in Freiburg. --Polarlys (talk) 23:02, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
