Guest guest Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I took a couple photos of Livs casts and wanted to share. The 1st blue masterpiece of art is a beautifully decorated Risser. Notice the small round window in front, no rib support.. The 2nd (beautiful orange cast) was applied by Dr. Mehta when Liv was 5 and had already been through halo gravity traction, rissers, bracing, etc....The difference in windows is obvious, but please notice what great purchase on the pelvis both casts have. Excellent purchase on the pelvis is needed for any type of cast, Risser of EDF. I hope these examples are helpful.
