Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), an inherited X-linked recessive disorder, is characterized by progressive symmetric muscle weakness and gait disturbance, with onset in early childhood. DMD is the most common muscular dystrophy in children, and incidence ranges from 1 in 3600 to 4700 live male births. Early diagnosis (screening, confirmation, and genetic counseling), treatment, and long-term follow-up of affected individuals in routine pediatric practice can be challenging and are the focus of this review.
