Objetivo: Sumariar a evidência científica sobre o efeito de programas de intervenção que incluam a realidade virtual no equilíbrio e marcha em idosos. Metodologia: Pesquisa computadorizada nas bases de dados PubMed, Web of Science e PEDro de modo a selecionar estudos experimentais em idosos que avaliassem o efeito de intervenções com realidade virtual sobre testes/parâmetros relacionados com o equilíbrio e a marcha. Resultados: 9 estudos cumpriram os critérios de elegibilidade definidos, tendo apresentado os resultados para um total de 283 idosos. Idosos sujeitos a programas de exercícios com realidade virtual apresentaram, na sua maioria, melhorias significativas em diferentes testes/parâmetros do equilíbrio e marcha, e inclusivé, melhores resultados em comparação com idosos sujeitos a programas de exercícios convencionais. Conclusão: existe evidência de que a realidade virtual tem efeitos positivos sobre o equilíbrio e a marcha de idosos.
