Patient stories

Paisley’s foot and spine deformities were identified early, allowing CHOP clinicians to use braces and casts to fix her condition, instead of surgical correction.

Bracing has helped decrease the curvature in Annie's spine from scoliosis and delay surgical intervention.

Diagnosed with early-onset scoliosis at 5 months old, Tristan was treated with serial body casting, an innovative therapy that gradually straightens spinal curves.
