Virchow's most important contributions to biological thought are contained in Die Cellularpathologie. However, his famous aphorism "Omnis cellula e cellula" was not included in the first edition of 1858, but having first appeared in his paper "Cellular-Pathologie" (Virchow's Archiv 8 (1855), pp. 3-39), it was first introduced into the second edition, as an extension of Harvey's "Omnium vivum ex ovo" and Pasteur's "Omne vivum e vivo" [cf. Norman 2156]
