Abstract
The focus of this chapter will be on the rehabilitation management of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The diagnostic evaluation, molecular genetic etiology, pathophysiology, and medical management of DMD are thoroughly covered in other chapters of this text. The orthopedic surgical management of DMD is also covered in a separate chapter, but will be discussed in this chapter only as it applies to specific rehabilitation modalities.
