Presurgical Perspective and Postsurgical Evaluation of the Plantar Fascia.
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology 2022 December
The plantar fascia is an important structure in the foot that acts as a major stabilizer of the longitudinal arch, along with the midfoot ligaments and intrinsic and extrinsic muscles. It is composed predominantly of longitudinally oriented collagen fibers that vary in thickness and are organized into bundles closely associated with the interstitial tissues of the foot. This composition enables the plantar fascia to withstand the weight-bearing forces concentrated on the foot while standing, jumping, walking, or running. This article discusses the normal anatomy and the various pathologies that affect the plantar fascia with an emphasis on presurgical and postoperative appearances on magnetic resonance and ultrasonography imaging.
