The fibula is the bone in the lower part of a human's leg. It does not carry as much weight load as the top of the leg does but it provides as attachments points for several different muscles.
My husband is scheduled for surgery for the removal of his fibula. He has had two previous surgeries with no relief of the pain. First meniscus tear, then part of the fibula was cut away. Two different surgeons. Now a new surgeon by reading the op reports and seeing the area of the pain, feels the fibula needs to go. What could happen without the fibula?
