Introdução: A Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne é uma doença genética que causa fraqueza muscular progressiva e leva à paralisia total e à morte súbita nos últimos anos da adolescência ou em adultos jovens. Objetivo: Avaliar a importância da Fisioterapia em crianças com Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica recorrendo as bases de dados PEDro, Pubmed, Web of Science, CINAHL e Scielo, incluindo artigos randomizados controlados em humanos, artigos em inglês e amostra constituída por idade inferior a 18 anos. Resultados: Obtiveram-se 67 artigos dos quais foram 5 para o estudo com um total de 107 participantes de acordo com os critérios de inclusão e exclusão. A qualidade metodológica dos artigos utilizados foi recolhida através da Escala de PEDro, tendo-se obtido um score médio de 5,6. Conclusão: A fisioterapia na vida do paciente DMD parece ter uma influência fundamental e importante para atrasar a progressão da doença e permitir uma melhor qualidade de vida.
