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 medial portion of plantar aponeurosis (Medial band of plantar fascia) is thin, and covers the under surface of the Abductor hallucis; it is attached behind to the flexor retinaculum (laciniate ligament), and is continuous around the side of the foot with the dorsal fascia, and laterally with the central portion of the plantar aponeurosis.

The central part of the plantar aponeurosis is the strongest, extending from the medial process of the calcaneal tuberosity to the digits. Along the shafts of the metatarsal bones, the plantar aponeurosis divides into five bands, which extend into each digit to become continuous with the fibrous sheaths of the toes.

2024年4月24日 · The plantar fascia or plantar aponeurosis is a dense collection of collagen fibers on the sole (plantar surface) of the foot. These fibers are mostly longitudinal but also transverse. Posteriorly it attaches to the medial process of the tuberosity of the calcaneus, proximal to flexor digitorum brevis.

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. These parts are usually categorized as “fascia”.

The central portion of the plantar aponeurosis is continuous with the lateral and medial portions and sends upward into the foot, at the lines of junction, two strong vertical intermuscular septa, broader in front than behind, which separate the intermediate from the lateral and medial plantar groups of muscles; from these again are derived ...

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. These parts are usually categorized as ‘‘fascia’’.

2016年4月14日 · The plantar aponeurosis or plantar fascia as it is more colloquially known is a flat sheet of thickened, poorly vascularised and poorly innovated, deep fibrous connective tissue of the foot which can measure between 2.2 and 5.4milimetres (Cardina, Chhem, Beauregard, Aubin, & Pelletier, 1996).

2014年1月2日 · Objectives: To explore the anatomy of the plantar aponeurosis (PA) and its biomechanical effects on the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint and foot arch. Methods: Anatomic parameters (length, width and thickness of each central PA bundle and the main body of the central part) were measured in 8 cadaveric specimens.

2025年3月1日 · Multiple-maker foot model incorporating anatomically-detailed plantar aponeurosis (PA) morphology for estimating the dynamic behaviors of the plantar aponeurosis.
