The distal expansion of the fibula is the lateral malleolus. This structure is familiar as the bump at the outside of your ankle.
The distal articulation of the tibia and fibula means the place where the tibia and fibula form a joint at the end of the bones farthest from the origin of the limb. The distal articulation of the tibia and fibula is with the talus.
The distal tibia and fibula both articulate with the talus. The talus is the superiormost of the tarsals.
The distal ends of the tibia and fibula are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The tibia has the medial malleolus, and the fibula has the lateral malleolus.
The distal ends of the tibia and fibula are the malleoli (singular malleolus). These are familiar as the bumps at your ankle.
The joint between the distal tibia and fibula is a syndesmosis. It does not allow for much movement.
There are only two that are actually distal: the tibia and the fibula.
The lateral malleolus is the bone marking that can be palpated at the distal end of the fibula. This structure is the bump at the outside of your ankle.
medial malleolus
No, the lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula. The medial malleolus is the distal end of the tibia.
The large bumps found at the distal ends of the shafts of the tibia and fibula are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The tibia forms the medial malleolus, and the fibula forms the lateral malleolus.
This joint is called as syndesmosis.
The bone thst articulates with the tibia and fibula is the Talus bone.
