This corset was developed in the 1960s at the hospital Raymond-Poincaré located in Garches, to meet the specific characteristics of paralytic scoliosis. It successfully reconciles several treatment objectives, in particular: 

• Prevents the collapse of the trunk during sitting or standing position, 
  
• Corrects spinal deformities, 
  
• Slowed the aggravation of scoliosis over the years, 
  
• Does not interfere with bone growth or chest development, 
• Facilitates the sitting position and can thus contribute to the improvement of the child functional possibilities and psychomotor development. 

It can be equipped with an adjonction stabilising the head/neck. 

The parts covering the pelvis as well as the upper part opens completely, which greatly facilitates the donning of the corset. 

The material, a type of Plexiglas, is transparent and thus allows the visual control of the pressures inside the corset.
