The malleolus. The "inner" process is called the medial malleolus, and the "outer" process is called the lateal malleolus.
What does the medial mallelous do?
It is located at the distal end of the tibia and articulates with the ankle. It provides medial support to your ankle.
Distal process on medial tibial surface?
The distal process on the medial tibial surface is also known as the medial malleolus. It is a bony prominence located on the inner side of the ankle joint where the tibia articulates with the talus bone of the foot. The medial malleolus helps stabilize the ankle joint and provides attachment points for ligaments that support the joint.
4 The medial malleolus is located on the distal end of what bone?

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.
What is the medial malleolus part of?
The medial malleolus is part of the tibia, which is one of the two long bones in the lower leg. It forms the inner part of the ankle joint and helps provide stability to the ankle.
Is the lateral malleolus distal end of the tibia?
No, the lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula. The medial malleolus is the distal end of the tibia.
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 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 a fracture of the distal end of the fibula?
A fracture of the distal end of the fibula, known as a lateral malleolus fracture, typically occurs at the ankle joint. It is commonly caused by twisting or direct impact to the ankle. Treatment may involve immobilization with a cast or surgery, depending on the severity of the fracture.
Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct Mark all that apply.?
