The equinovarus foot patients by the hemiplegic after the cerebrovascular accident have risk of the rollover and the mistaken learning of the walking. To cure the hemiplegic patient, the ankle foot orthosis have been using for rehabilitation of hemiplegic patient. The common ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) may break the balance of gait by its thickness. To cure the equinovarus foot, we aimed development of the orthosis that can dorsiflexion and valgus by the tow of strings. The symmetry index of the gravity point acceralation of proposed orthosis was large than common AFO, and statistical difference was not between normal walk and proposed orthosis.
