Cerebral palsy (CP) encompasses a group of definitive and non-progressive conditions, with a non-progressive character and its installation in neonatal period. Motor disorders caused by CP may lead to changes in swallowing, resulting in limitations in the activities that are attributed to non-progressive disorders that do not reach the developing child's brain. This article reviews the clinical aspects of dysphagia in CP and the treatments in the area. Only papers published in the period from 2009 to 2017 were considered, using a methodological strategy for electronic search in the databases SciELO-Brazil, Lilacs and Medline/ Pubmed. The present research analyzed 24 articles, regarding the year of publication, sample and instruments used, verifying that Speech Therapists and other staff involved in the improvement and rehabilitation of cognitive functions have provided better rehabilitation conditions, despite the need for more therapy and diagnostic studies. Keywords: Cerebral Palsy; Swallowing Disorders; Risk Factors RESUMO A paralisia cerebral engloba um grupo de afecções definitivas e não progressivas no sistema nervoso central sem caráter progressivo e de instalação no período neonatal. Os distúrbios motores ocasionados pela paralisia cerebral podem acarretar alterações na deglutição ocasionando limitações de atividade que são atribuídas a distúrbios não progressivos que ocorrem no cérebro infantil em desenvolvimento. Esse artigo revisa os aspectos clínicos da disfagia na paralisia cerebral e as terapêuticas existentes na área. Foram considerados apenas os trabalhos publicados no período de 2009 a 2017, e utilizou-se como estratégia metodológica uma busca eletrônica nas bases de dados: SciELO-Brasil, Lilacs e Medline/ Pubmed. A presente pesquisa analisou 24 artigos, resumidamente, quanto ao ano de publicação, amostra e instrumentos utilizados, constatando que o Fonoaudiólogo e os demais profissionais envolvidos no aperfeiçoamento e reabilitação das funções cognitivas têm criado melhores condições de reabilitação, apesar da necessidade de mais estudos nas áreas de terapia e diagnóstico.
