Abstract

An orthopaedic brace structure (1) for treating lesions of the foot, in particular diabetic ulcer, of a patient, comprises a leg-foot brace (30) of thermoformable plastic material, for example polypropylene. The leg-foot brace (30) comprises a leg member (20), having a longitudinal axis (101), and a sole (21) arranged in a plane (&ggr,-). More in detail, the leg-foot brace (30) is such that the longitudinal axis (101) forms an angle (alpha) determined with the plane (Y). The angle (alpha) corresponds to the position in which a patient's ankle joint is blocked for reducing the shear stresses acting on ulcer lesions.
