The present bibliometric study, aimed to map and explore the scientific production in Physical Education in “Revista Brasileira de Educação Especial” (RBEE), having as source the articles published by the journal between 1992 and 2021. 33 articles were selected that referred to Physical Education or Adapted Physical Education. The results of the analysis indicated a greater number of scientific publications on the theme in 2015, concentrated in the Southeast and South regions of Brazil and carried out with different types of disabilities and students of varying ages. In addition, it was found that the keywords most used in published studies are Special Education and Adapted Physical Education. It is concluded from the investigated scenario, that the scientific production about Physical Education on RBEE, although it has increased in recent years driven by the growth of the productions on this journal, is still incipient and needs expansion in some aspects. It is expected that future researches will deepen the investigated themes and consider the investigative gaps observed, to provide paths for the expansion and development of Adapted Physical Education in the educational reality.
