The femur is proximal to the tarsals (ankle bones). The femur is the thighbone.
Yes, the patella is distal to the femur. This is because the patella is more distant than the femur to the attachment point to the trunk of the body. You can also say the femur is proximal to the patella.
There are only two that are actually distal: the tibia and the fibula.
The ICD-9 code for a distal femur subperiosteal abscess is 730.28.
The proximal tarsal region is the ankle area closest to the leg and farthest from the foot. The talus is the most proximal of the tarsals.
Those bones are the tarsals, which make the ankle.The distal ends of the tibia and fibula articulate with a single tarsal bone called the talus.footfoottarsal bones
The talus is the most superior of the tarsals. It forms a joint with the distal end of the tibia.
The distal tibia and fibula both articulate with the talus. The talus is the superiormost of the tarsals.
Yes, the patella is distal to the femur. This is because the patella is more distant than the femur to the attachment point to the trunk of the body. You can also say the femur is proximal to the patella.

they are femur,tibia,fibula,phanlanges,tersal,and metatersal
The meniscus covers the distal surface of the femur where it meets the tibia. This cartilage provides smooth movement and shock absorption.
The proximal tarsal region is the ankle area closest to the leg and farthest from the foot. The talus is the most proximal of the tarsals.
No, the femur is closer to the head than tarsals
Those bones are the tarsals, which make the ankle.The distal ends of the tibia and fibula articulate with a single tarsal bone called the talus.footfoottarsal bones
The cuboid is the most lateral of the tarsals. It's farthest from the midline, and farthest from the calcaneus.
No, the tarsal bones are proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the tarsal bones.
