Treating Pectus Carinatum: A personalized and non-invasive approach
Do you or a loved one suffer from pectus carinatum, a deformity of the chest wall?
Are you looking for an effective, comfortable solution tailored to your body?
Discover ThoPec®, our custom dynamic compression harness, designed to gently and gradually correct this deformity.
Pectus Carinatum, also known as "keeled chest," is a deformity of the thorax characterized by an abnormal protrusion of the sternum and ribs.
Although generally benign, this condition can cause physical problems (pain, breathing difficulties) and psychological issues (discomfort, lack of self-confidence)
Custom-made
Each harness is specifically designed for the patient’s morphology. A 3D scan or precise measurements of your chest allow the creation of an accurate digital model, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal pressure.
Dynamic compression
The progressive compression system is adjusted by the physician. It applies gentle and constant pressure to the protruding areas of the chest, promoting the natural remodeling of the thoracic wall over time.
Comfort and discretion
Made from lightweight, breathable materials, the ThoPec® harness is designed to be worn discreetly under clothing. Its ergonomic design ensures optimal comfort in daily life, even during physical activities.
Healthcare professionals support you throughout your treatment. Regular adjustments are made to optimize results and ensure steady progress.
Consultation and Diagnosis: An initial consultation confirms the diagnosis of Pectus Carinatum and assesses the suitability of compression treatment.
3D Modeling: A non-invasive scan or a dimentional measurument of your chest is performed to create a digital model. Your unique harness will be manufactured based on this model.
Harness Manufacturing: Your ThoPec® harness is precision-machined to the millimeter and then assembled with straps and an easy-to-use adjustment system.
Fitting and Follow-up: During harness fitting, the doctor explains how to adjust and wear it correctly. Monitoring progress requires regular follow-up appointments to adjust compression, which is controlled by a pressure sensor. The shape of the harness is corrected, if necessary, using a bending tool.
