Adrenoleukodystrophy
Frederic P. Miller, Agnes F. Vandome, John McBrewster
Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) (also known as "Addison-Schilder Disease," "Siemerling-Creutzfeldt Disease," and "Schilder's disease":545) is a rare, inherited disorder that leads to progressive brain damage, failure of the adrenal glands and eventually death. ALD is one disease in a group of inherited disorders called leukodystrophies.
