What bones form a joint with the ankle?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

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.

Answer 3

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)

Answer 4

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).

Answer 5

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.

Answer 6

The lateral malleolus bone shapes the outer ankles.

Answer 7

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).

Answer 8

Talus, Calcaneus, Navicular, Cudboid and the Cuneforms 1-3

Answer 9

tarsal bones
