Which bones form lateral and medial malleolus?
The lateral malleolus is formed by the fibula, while the medial malleolus is formed by the tibia. These bony protrusions are located on each side of the ankle joint, providing stability and support to the joint.
What is the alignment of the medial and lateral malleoli relative to each other?
The medial malleolus is located more distally and anteriorly compared to the lateral malleolus. The two malleoli form an asymmetrical alignment with the medial malleolus extending further down than the lateral malleolus.
4 The medial malleolus is located on the distal end of what bone?
I think they are inner and outer ankle The Medial malleolus if found on the Tibia and the Lateral malleolus is found on the Fibula. The ankle connect to the Medial and Lateral malleolus.
What is the name of the process on the distal portion of the tibia?
The malleolus. The "inner" process is called the medial malleolus, and the "outer" process is called the lateal malleolus.
What are the processes and bones that create your medial and lateral ankle and wrist bumps?
The bumps at the ankle are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The medial malleolus is formed by the tibia, and the lateral malleolus by the fibula. The medial wrist bump is formed by the styloid process of the ulna, and the lateral wrist bump by the styloid process of the radius.
Which bones form lateral and medial malleolus?
The lateral malleolus is formed by the fibula, while the medial malleolus is formed by the tibia. These bony protrusions are located on each side of the ankle joint, providing stability and support to the joint.
What structure on the tibia contributes to the ankle joint?
The medial malleolus and the lateral malleolus are bony prominences on the tibia that help form the ankle joint. They provide stability to the joint and serve as attachment points for ligaments that support the ankle.
Does the small saphenous vein begin on the posterior of the lateral malleolus of the fibula or the medial malleolus of the tibia?
Medial malleolus of the tibia
Which bone is medial ankle projection?
The medial ankle projection is on the tibia bone. But the medial ankle projection is actually called medial malleolus.
What is the alignment of the medial and lateral malleoli relative to each other?
The medial malleolus is located more distally and anteriorly compared to the lateral malleolus. The two malleoli form an asymmetrical alignment with the medial malleolus extending further down than the lateral malleolus.
What part of the body would you palpate a malleolus?
You would palpate the malleolus at the ankle joint. The malleolus is the bony prominence on either side of the ankle—the lateral malleolus on the outer side and the medial malleolus on the inner side.

What are the processes and bones that create your medial and lateral ankle and wrist bumps?
The bumps at the ankle are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The medial malleolus is formed by the tibia, and the lateral malleolus by the fibula. The medial wrist bump is formed by the styloid process of the ulna, and the lateral wrist bump by the styloid process of the radius.
On what bone would you find the medial malleolus?
The medial malleolus is found on the tibia bone, which is the larger of the two lower leg bones. It is located on the inner side of the ankle and helps form the ankle joint with the talus bone of the foot.
Is malleolus singular plural or both?
Singular. Malleoli is the plural form. ie "the left medial malleolus", or "both medial malleoli"
Is the tibia the medial bulge at your ankle a projection?
No, the tibia is the larger of the two bones in the lower leg, commonly referred to as the shinbone. The medial bulge at the ankle is known as the medial malleolus, which is a bony projection at the inner side of the ankle.
