[The use of an articulated brace in the treatment of juvenile kyphosis (author's transl)].

The authors have attempted to assess the efficiency of an articulated brace in the treatment of juvenile kyphosis (Scheuermann's disease and idiopathic kyphosis). Two series of patients were compared. Patients in both series were treated in a first stage by a plaster cast and in a second stage by a bivalve brace in the first series and an articulated brace in the second series.
