There is no joint with the ankle. The joint is the ankle.
There are three bones that make up the ankle joint. The joint of the ankle is made up of the Tibia and Fibula bones descending from the lower leg, and the Talus Tarsal bone of the upper foot/ankle.
The 14 ankle bones in the foot are called Tarsals. They are called the talus, calcaneus (heel bone), navicular, cuboid, internal cuneiform, middle cuneiform, and external cuneiform on each side.
The tibia and fibula of your leg articulates with the tarsals in the foot (anatomically the ankle joint is the joint between the distal end of leg bones, tibia and fibula, and the trochlea of Talus)
The fibula articulates with:
The tibia, medially, via long stretch of connective tissue referred to as a syndesmosis.
The talus, inferiorly, via talofibular joint.
The fibula *does not* articulate with the patella / "knee cap" or femur. In addition, the fibula is not a weight-bearing structure (the tibia is the weight-bearing bone of the lower leg).
The ankle joint is composed of the tibia and fibula from above and the talus below. The talus is connected to the calcaneous, navicular, and cubouid.
The lateral malleolus bone shapes the outer ankles.
The talus articulates in the foot with the calcaneas (heel bone) and the navicular bone. It also articulates with the bones of the leg (the fibula and tibia).

tarsal bones
The talocrural joint connects the foot with the leg. The bones that make up this joint are the talus, distal fibula, and distal tibia.
The tarsal bones are the bone of the ankle, heel and upper foot. Technically the ankle joint is the connection between the tibia and fibula (leg bones) and the talus, or ankle bone.
Tarsals are the sliding bones in the ankle which allow the rotation movement. Carpals do the same but in the wrist.
The ankle joint.
Yes, your ankle "joint" consists of three bones. The Talus, Tibia, Fibula.
The four bones that form the ankle joint are the tibia, fibula, talus, and calcaneus. The tibia and fibula are the bones of the lower leg that articulate with the talus, which sits on top of the calcaneus, or heel bone.
An astragal is a moulding for edging or decorating furniture, or the bone in the ankle connecting to the leg bones to form the ankle joint.
The ankle is the meeting point for three bones, these are the talus, tibula and fibula. Each of these three bones have their own joint that connect the foot.
An ankle is a joint formed by leg bones. by makala
No. Ankle is talocrural joint and tarsals are bones in the foot.
The talocrural joint connects the foot with the leg. The bones that make up this joint are the talus, distal fibula, and distal tibia.
There are two ankle joints - the upper ankle joint and the lower ankle joint. The upper ankle joint is a hinge joint and helps in bending and stretching. The lower ankle joint helps in pronation and suppination of the feet.
The ankle is the joint formed by the articulation of the lower leg bones with the talus. The ankle connects the foot with the leg.
There are 7 bones in one ankle. Here are all 7 of them: Talus Calcaneus Navicular Cuboid Internal cuneiform Middle cuneiform External cuneiform
The bones specifically involved in the ankle joint are the tibia, fibula and talus. Any of the joints that unite the tarsal bones. (Tarsals)
The scientific name for ankle bones is "tarsal bones," which make up the ankle joint along with the tibia and fibula of the lower leg.
In frogs the ankle bones (or tarsals) are fused to form the astragalus-calcaneum.
