The Plantar aponeurosis is the modification of Deep fascia, which covers the sole. It is a thick connective tissue, that functions to support and protect the underlying vital structures of the foot. The fascia is thick centrally, known as aponeurosis and is thin along the sides.
The plantar aponeurosis is a thick collagenous structure located deep to the superficial fascia and the skin of the sole of the foot. It is composed of mainly longitudinally arranged fibers, along with some transverse fibers.
The plantar aponeurosis, or plantar fascia, has received considerable attention in the scientific literature and has been shown to be the most important structure for dynamic longitudinal arch support in the foot [1].
The plantar fascia or plantar aponeurosis [1] is the thick connective tissue aponeurosis which supports the arch on the bottom (plantar side) of the foot. Recent studies suggest that the plantar fascia is actually an aponeurosis rather than true fascia.
The plantar aponeurosis, also known as the plantar fascia, is a strong layer of white fibrous tissue located beneath the skin on the sole of the foot. Towards the front of the foot, at the...
Plantar Fasciitis is a painful heel condition caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia aponeurosis at its origin on the calcaneus. Diagnosis is made clinically with tenderness to palpation at the medial tuberosity of the calcaneus that worsens with dorsiflexion of the toes and foot.
The plantar aponeurosis (PA) originates from the calcaneal tubercle and extends to the forefoot. The aponeurosis consists of a medial, central and lateral part. The medial and lateral parts attach to the abductor hallucis and the musculus abductor digiti quinti pedis, respectively.
The plantar fascia, or plantar aponeurosis, forms part of the deep fascia of the foot and provides a strong mechanical linkage between the calcaneus and the toes. Often associated with the...
The supporting ligaments provide more stability than the bones of the arch. One of these ligamentous structures, the plantar aponeurosis, acts as a supporting beam between the two pillars. Another important structure, the spring ligament, supports the head of the talus.
The plantar fascia, or plantar aponeurosis, forms part of the deep fascia of the sole of the foot and provides a strong mechanical linkage between the calcaneus and the toes.
