Heinrich von Bamberger (December 27, 1822, Zwornarka, nearby Prague - November 9, 1888, Vienna) was an Austrian pathologist from Prague.
In 1847 he earned his doctorate from the University of Prague, and from 1851 to 1854 was a clinical assistant to Johann von Oppolzer (1808-1871) in Vienna. In 1854 he became professor of therapeutic pathology at the University of Würzburg, returning to the University of Vienna in 1872, where he succeeded Oppolzer as professor of special pathology and therapy. He was father to internist Eugen von Bamberger (1858-1921).
Bamberger was a specialist in respiratory and circulatory pathology, remembered for his research involving diseases of the pericardium, heart tissues, and the larger vessels. He provided early descriptions of hematogenous albuminuria, uremic pericarditis and progressive polyserositis (general inflammation of serous membranes). The eponymous Bamberger's disease is named after him, which is a spasmodic affection of the leg muscles (sometimes called "dancing spasms").
In 1857 he published Lehrbuch der Krankheiten des Herzens (Handbook of Diseases of the Heart), which was one of the first textbooks dedicated to cardiac pathology. Another of his publications of note was Die Krankheiten des chylopoetischen Systems (On the Diseases of the Chylopoietic System, 1855)
