Le corset médical est également utilisé dans des affections évolutives (scoliose, cyphose) pour corriger la posture du patient : il s'agit d'un corset orthopédique[1]. Il est fabriqué sur mesure par des professionnels de santé[2].
Les corsets médicaux courants se déclinent en plusieurs matériaux : rigide, souple, semi-rigide.
