| | Articulations between the tibia and fibula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The articulations between the tibia and fibula are effected by ligaments which connect the extremities and bodies of the bones. | | | ('syndesmosis tibiofibularis; inferior tibiofibular articulation') This syndesmosis is formed by the rough, convex surface of the medial side of the lower end of the fibula, and a rough concave surface on the lateral side of the tibia. | | | This ligament projects below the margin of the bones, and forms part of the articulating surface for the talus. |

| | The muscle is thickest at its mid-section where its flattened form curves around the deep flexor muscles of the foot and toes. | | | It lies just below the peroneus longus muscle, originating from the lower surface of the fibula (lower leg bone) and inserting in the base of the metatarsal bone of the little toe. | | | The peroneus longus (fibular muscle) is a superficial muscle that runs along the upper part of the outside of the leg. |

| | The Effect of Lower Extremities on Sacroiliac Joints Keith Innes, DC |
| | Examining the fibula in a position of non-function is clearly an expression of ignorance about the function of the lower limb; then making adjustments to a structure that is not in a position of function during the examination brings up the question of credibility. | | | The facet on the tibia that the fibula moves on faces posterolateral-inferior in orientation, and any attempt to push and pull will most assuredly produce a positive joint-play finding of joint dysfunction. | | | The lower extremity has a huge influence on the function of the pelvis and lumbar spine, however few of the profession have taken the time to attend up to date scientific forums or read the current literature. |

The fibula is important because it is the bone upon which the muscles of the leg originate. | | | What causes the problem with the fibula is not known. In some instances, though, genetics may play a role. Some researchers suggest that the deformity may occur between the second and eight week of fetal development. This is the time when the limb buds start to develop. | | | The condition is the most common of limb abnormalities and most often only one leg is affected. The fibula can be totally missing. Or, it can be too small. |
