چکیده
The Lyon Bracing Management evolved since 1947 as cooperation between Pierre Stagnara MD and Bouillat & Terrier CPO. The Lyon management results of a reduction with a plaster cast from one to four months, before moulding the brace. It is a below arm adjustable brace without any superstructure. Very early braces were made from a combination of steel and leather. After the second world war, Pierre Lecante CPO noticed that the cockpit of a Messerschmitt fallen close to his country house “La Douve” is made of very resistant plastic. The plastic allows tapping and direct screwing. The use of the plexidurTM was born and would replace leather. There are many braces that are called Lyon Braces, but strictly speaking, there is not one Lyon brace but a Lyon Bracing Management with a plaster cast and a brace. Now that the controlled study by the Scoliosis Research Society has shown that braces can be effective, it is even more important that the braces are designed so they can control curvature.

The Lyon brace also applies derotational forces to the spine, with the main thoracic plate pushing the hump from the posterior convexity toward the anterior concavity of the scoliotic curve. Lyon bracing is considered to be an effective mean...
