Early results of Rigo-Chêneau type brace treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Results Average Cobb angle before treatment was 36.5°, which was reduced in the trial brace to 23.2°: correction rate was 36% (34% for T, 69% for TL, and 31% for D curve). Of 54 patients, 20 met the inclusion criteria of the SRS brace study (Risser 0-2, Cobb angle 25-40° ) and six of them reached skeletal maturity during the treatment period. Three of them (50%) progressed more than 6°; however, only one patient progressed more than 10°.

Brace technology thematic series: the 3D Rigo Chêneau-type brace
BACKGROUND Chêneau and Matthias introduced in 1979 a brace concept inspired in casting. The brace was initially named "CTM" from Chêneau-Toulouse-Münster. The name "CTM" is still popular in France but "Chêneau-type brace" is its common name in the rest of the world. Principles to construct this brace were originally based on anatomical descriptions rather than biomechanics, and its standard is ...

Background: Bracing concepts in use today for the treatment of scoliosis include symmetric and asymmetric hard braces usually made of polyethylene (PE) and soft braces. The plaster cast method worldwide seems to be the most practiced technique for the construction of hard braces at the moment. CAD (Computer Aided Design) systems are available which allow brace adjustments without plaster. Anoth...

Results A total of 32 patients, 27 females and 5 males, met the SRS inclusion criteria. Average age at the beginning of the treatment was 12.0 years (10 to 15). Risser sign was 0 in13, I in 7, and II in 12 patients. Curve pattern was thoracic (T) in 12, thoracolumbar or lumbar (TL) in 12 and double (D) in 8 patients. Average Cobb angle before treatment was 30.9°. Initial correction rate by the ...
متن کاملEffectiveness of the Rigo Chêneau versus Boston-style orthoses for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a retrospective study
BACKGROUND Bracing can effectively treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), but patient outcomes have not been compared by brace type. We compared outcomes of AIS patients treated with Rigo Chêneau orthoses (RCOs) or custom-molded Boston-style thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSOs). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patient records from one scoliosis center from 1999 through 2014. Patients...
