Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Plantar fasciitis is a common condition of heel pain with a lifetime incidence up to 10%. For this entity, conservative treatment is considered the gold standard, involving non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, stretching exercises of the plantar fascia, activity modifications, ice, and insoles. When patients do not respond to these treatments, partial or total plantar fascia release has been the mainstay of treatment, with success rates of approximately 70% to 90%. For this purpose, several techniques have been described, including open, percutaneous, and endoscopic release. The objective of this Technical Note is to describe the nonassisted 2-portal endoscopic plantar fascia release in a patient with recalcitrant plantar fasciitis.
