Plantar fasciitis (PF) is reported in different sports mainly in running and soccer athletes. Purpose of this study is to conduct a systematic review of published literature concerning the diagnosis and treatment of PF in both recreational and élite athletes. The review was conducted and reported in accordance with the PRISMA statement.
The following electronic databases were searched: PubMed, Cochrane Library and Scopus. As far as PF diagnosis, we investigated the electronic databases from January 2006 to June 2016, whereas in considering treatments all data in literature were investigated.
For both diagnosis and treatment, 17 studies matched inclusion criteria. The results have highlighted that the most frequently used diagnostic techniques were Ultrasonography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Conventional, complementary, and alternative treatment approaches were assessed.
In reviewing literature, we were unable to find any specific diagnostic algorithm for PF in athletes, due to the fact that no different diagnostic strategies were used for athletes and non-athletes. As for treatment, a few literature data are available and it makes difficult to suggest practice guidelines. Specific studies are necessary to define the best treatment algorithm for both recreational and élite athletes.

足底筋膜炎（PF）在不同运动项目中均有报道，主要见于跑步和足球运动员。本研究的目的是对已发表的有关普通运动员和精英运动员足底筋膜炎诊断与治疗的文献进行系统综述。该综述按照PRISMA声明进行并报告。
检索了以下电子数据库：PubMed、Cochrane图书馆和Scopus。关于足底筋膜炎的诊断，我们检索了2006年1月至2016年6月的电子数据库，而在考虑治疗方法时，对文献中的所有数据进行了检索。
在诊断和治疗方面，有17项研究符合纳入标准。结果表明，最常用的诊断技术是超声检查和磁共振成像。对传统、补充和替代治疗方法进行了评估。
在回顾文献时，我们未能找到针对运动员足底筋膜炎的任何特定诊断算法，因为对运动员和非运动员未采用不同的诊断策略。至于治疗，可用的文献数据较少，难以提出实践指南。需要进行具体研究以确定针对普通运动员和精英运动员的最佳治疗方案。
