Osama bin Laden (Marfan rumors deemed "likely false" by journalists) Julius Caesar (speculative) Robert Johnson (speculative) Jonathan Larson (speculative) Abraham Lincoln (disputed speculative diagnosis—Lincoln's DNA has not been tested) Niccolò Paganini (speculative) Michael Phelps (disputed by Phelps) Sergei Rachmaninoff (disputed: "Rachmaninov did not clearly exhibit any of the other clinical characteristics typical of Marfan's. . . .
