Histology



The authors review histologic findings from 50 cases of heel spur
surgery for chronic plantar fasciitis. Findings include myxoid
degeneration with fragmentation and degeneration of the plantar
fascia and bone marrow vascular ectasia.
Histologic findings are presented to support the thesis that "plantar
fasciitis" is a degenerative fasciosis without inflammation, not a
fasciitis.
These findings suggest that treatment regimens such as serial corticosteroid injections into
the plantar fascia should be revaluated in the absence of inflammation and in light of their
potential to induce plantar fascial rupture.

Risk-factors



The risk of plantar fasciitis increases as the range of ankle
dorsiflexion decreases.
Individuals who spend the majority of their workday on their
feet
