[0008] Preferably, the upper surfaces of the upper arm support and the forearm support are both arc-shaped and concave.

[0009] Preferably, the end of the rotating screw is located outside the forearm support, and the rotation of the screw drives the rotating screw to rotate and retract, and the traction rope is fixed on the rotating screw.

[0010] Preferably, the traction rope is made of metal.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] The utility model discloses an adjustable cubitus varus orthotic brace, which adopts a design combining an arm support, a forearm support and a traction rope, and can effectively correct cubitus varus occurring after elbow joint injury, thereby exempting patients from the pain of surgery, reducing the psychological burden and economic pressure of patients and their families, and also reducing the burden of medical insurance; the utility model is easy to operate and easy to wear.
