Compression and/or contention garment for lymphoedema treatment

A compression and/or contention garment suitable for lymphedema treatment, the compression and/or contention garment comprising a main body, the main body comprising a compression textile, the compression textile having an elasticity strictly greater than 70% in at least one direction of extensibility, the compression textile having a module in accordance with the ISO standard NF EN 14704-1 of June 2005 on the determination of the elasticity of fabrics that is greater than or equal to 3.5 N at an elongation of 40% on the fifth load curve in the direction of extensibility,

• the compression and/or contention garment having at least a first targeted area, in which the compression and/or contention garment comprises at least one layer of reinforcement textile in the first targeted area, the compression and/or contention garment having a module in the first targeted area that is greater than the module of the compression textile,
• the compression and/or contention garment having at least a second targeted area in which the compression and/or contention garment comprises at least one layer of contention textile, the at least one layer of contention textile having a stiffness in at least one direction of interest greater than or equal to 30 N/(m*mm) over any normal range of use of the compression and/or contention garment,
• the stiffness of the at least one layer of contention textile in the direction of interest being strictly greater than the stiffness of the main body in the direction of interest over a normal range of use of the compression and/or contention garment,
• the stiffness of the at least one layer of contention textile in the direction of interest being strictly greater than the stiffness of the compression and/or contention garment in the first targeted area in the direction of interest,
• wherein the compression and/or contention garment is configured so that, when worn by a user, the at least one layer of reinforcement textile extends at least against the user's buttock crease, pubic area and/or buttocks, thereby treating genital and/or pelvic lymphedema,
• wherein the first targeted area is formed as a single continuous area, and
• wherein the at least one layer of reinforcement textile is sewn on or to the main body, with overlapping seams extending around an entire periphery of the first targeted area.
