%X objective: to review the scientific literature on the tracking of dietary patterns from childhood to adolescence. methods: a search of the medline/pubmed, lilacs and scielo databases was performed, using the following key words: "tracking", "dietary patterns" and "childhood/adolescence" and their respective synonyms. a total of 45 abstracts were found and, after the inclusion criteria were applied, 13 articles were included. the tracking of dietary patterns was assessed by three main statistical analyses: (pearson or spearman) correlation coefficients, kappa coefficient and probability analysis. results: the tracking of dietary patterns ranged from weak to moderate between the childhood-childhood and childhood-adolescence periods. during adolescence, there appears to be no tracking. conclusions: dietary patterns in childhood may continue until adolescence, although such patterns may be changed or discontinued throughout adolescence.
