ABSTRACT
Duchenne muscular dystrophy(DMD)is a fatal muscular wasting disease in children.Because of various factors such as DMDˊs low incidence,quick progression,limited knowledge of this disease,and treat-ment outcomes of respiratory failure,heart failure has become the leading cause of death in these patients.Early diagnosis and treatment is essential for prolonging the survival time and improving the quality of life.This review describes recent progress in the study of epidemiology,pathogenesis,early diagnosis,prevention and treatment of cardiac injury in patients with DMD.
