Its inheritance pattern is explained as a heterogenous disorder using a polygenic threshold model.
In younger people the plantar fascia is also intimately related to the Achilles tendon, with a continuous fascial connection between the two from the distal aspect of the Achilles to the origin of the plantar fascia at the calcaneal tubercle.
