Feigenbaum Bergeron Richardson syndrome, also known as Atherosclerosis-deafness-diabetes-epilepsy-nephropathy syndrome is a very rare fatal[2] genetic disorder which is characterized by atherosclerosis, hearing loss, diabetes mellitus, epilepsy, progressive neurological deterioration and nephropathy.[3][4][5][6] This disorder has been described in two brothers, and it is thought to be inherited in either an autosomal or X-linked recessive manner.[7] No new cases have been reported since 1994.[8] People with this disorder don't usually live beyond 30 to 40 years of age.[9]
