Article Synopsis
- Plantar fasciopathy is a common issue for athletes that impacts their performance, and this review aims to compile existing research on its management in elite athletes while highlighting knowledge gaps.
- The review used a structured methodology to assess 742 studies, ultimately selecting 10 for analysis, which focused on risk factors, treatment outcomes, and surgical interventions.
- Findings indicate that the studies have poor methodological quality and insufficient evidence, making it difficult to establish a definitive treatment standard for elite athletes suffering from plantar fasciopathy.
