Abstract
Purpose: to characterize the reading alterations in individuals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Methods: PubMed and SciELO platforms from 2006 to 2016 with the keywords "reading" and "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder", with their equivalents in Portuguese, were searched.
Results: seven hundred ninety articles were found in the two databases, of which 119 were relevant. After a full reading, twenty five articles were selected for the analysis, according to relevance and other exclusion/inclusion criteria. In 21 of the studies, individuals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder presented worse performance in reading, as compared with their peers. Of these, 14 studies identified a delay in some skills that are important for reading: processing speed, reading accuracy, phonological awareness, comprehension and/or orthographic processing.
Conclusion: these results corroborate other studies that have verified the presence of a deficit in academic performance, especially in reading skills, in individuals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, that may persist in their adulthood.

Resumo
Objetivo: caracterizar as alterações de leitura presentes em indivíduos com Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade.
Métodos: foram realizadas buscas de publicações nas plataformas PubMed e SciELO de 2006 a 2016 com as palavras-chaves "leitura" e "transtorno do déficit de atenção e hiperatividade", com seus equivalentes em inglês.
Resultados: foi encontrado 790 artigos nas duas bases de dados, nas quais 119 eram mais relevantes. Vinte e cinco artigos foram selecionados para a análise, de acordo com a relevância e outros critérios de exclusão/inclusão. Em 21 publicações os indivíduos com Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade apresentaram pior desempenho em leitura, comparando com seus pares. Desses, 14 estudos identificaram atraso em algumas habilidades relevantes para a leitura: velocidade de processamento, precisão de leitura, consciência fonológica, compreensão e/ou processamento ortográfico.
Conclusão: estes resultados corroboram outros estudos que verificaram a presença de déficits nas habilidades de leitura em indivíduos com Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade que podem permanecer até a fase adulta.
