    Objective: Systematize the evidence about the risk of vaccines containing Thimerosal being associated with autism spectrum disorder in children. Materials and Methods: Retrospective quantitative systematic review, subjected to critical selection. The definitive selection of scientific articles synthesizes the results of multiple primary investigations, which were found in the following databases: Decs, Bvs, PubMed, Cochrane Plus and Scielo. The search has been restricted to articles with full text, and the 10 selected articles were subjected to critical reading, using the GRADE system to identify their level of evidence. Results: 50% (n=05/10) of the scientific evidence consulted; which have high evidence, indicate that the Thimerosal contained in vaccines is not associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder, thus demonstrating that vaccines are safe and reduce the high rates of childhood morbidity and mortality, therefore, they improve the child's quality of life. . Conclusion: The study of the 10 scientific articles reviewed determined that there is no risk that vaccines containing Thimerosal are associated with autism spectrum disorder.
