	Articulations between the tibia and fibula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The articulations between the tibia and fibula are affected by ligaments which connect the extremities and bodies of the bones.
		('articulatio tibiofibularis; superior tibiofibular articulation') This articulation is an arthrodial joint between the lateral condyle of the tibia and the head of the fibula.
		The interosseous ligament consists of numerous short, strong, fibrous bands, which pass between the contiguous rough surfaces of the tibia and fibula, and constitute the chief bond of union between the bones.

	Tibia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The tibia is the larger of the two bones in the leg below the knee in humans and other vertebrates.
		The tibia or shin bone, in human anatomy, is found medial (towards the middle) and anterior (towards the front) to the other such bone, the fibula.
		The tibia articulates with the femur and patella superiorly, the fibula laterally and with the ankle inferiorly.

		Its lateral surface is convex, rough, and prominent in front: on it is an eminence, situated on a level with the upper border of the tuberosity and at the junction of its anterior and lateral surfaces, for the attachment of the iliotibial band.
		The posterior surface is traversed by a shallow groove directed obliquely downward and medialward, continuous with a similar groove on the posterior surface of the talus and serving for the passage of the tendon of the Flexor hallucis longus.
		The lateral surface presents a triangular rough depression for the attachment of the inferior interosseous ligament connecting it with the fibula; the lower part of this depression is smooth, covered with cartilage in the fresh state, and articulates with the fibula.

		The anterior surface is the interval between the antero-lateral and antero-medial borders.
		The posterior surface is the space included between the postero-lateral and the postero-medial borders; it is continuous below with the triangular area above the articular surface of the lateral malleolus; it is directed backward above, backward and medialward at its middle, directly medialward below.
		Its upper third is rough, for the origin of the Soleus; its lower part presents a triangular surface, connected to the tibia by a strong interosseous ligament; the intervening part of the surface is covered by the fibers of origin of the Flexor hallucis longus.

	Fibula - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The fibula or calf bone is a bone placed on the lateral side of the tibia, with which it is connected above and below.
		Its upper extremity is small, placed toward the back of the head of the tibia, below the level of the knee-joint, and excluded from the formation of this joint.
		The blood supply is important for planning free tissue transfer because the fibula is commonly used to reconstruct the mandible.

		—This articulation is an arthrodial joint between the lateral condyle of the tibia and the head of the fibula.
		—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.

	Tibia - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The Tibia or shin bone, in human anatomy, is the larger of the two bones in the leg below the knee.
		It is found medial (towards the middle) and anterior (towards the front) to the other such bone, the fibula.
		In the male, its direction is vertical, and parallel with the bone of the opposite side; but in the female it has a slightly oblique direction downward and lateralward, to compensate for the greater obliquity of the femur.turkey

	Anatomy of the Knee
		The primary articulation of the knee is between the condyles of the femur and tibia.
		This articulation is separated by the medial and lateral menisci, which serve to deepen the articular surfaces and aid in lubrication and cushioning of the joint (Jenkins, 1991, pp.
		The articulation consists of the underside of the patella and the patellar grove of the femur.

		The tibia is the shin bone, one of the two crural bones of the leg.
		The upper end forms the tibial plateau consisting of two condyles (with a ridge or intercondylar eminence between them) which articulate with the two condyles of the femur to form the knee joint.
		Moreover, the shaft of the tibia is the insertion for thigh muscles such as sartorius, gracilis, semimembranosus and semitendinosus, as well as the origin of muscles acting on the foot such as tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus and soleus and the popliteus muscle which plays a role in knee action.

	The Articulations (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		In the long bones the extremities are the parts which form the articulations; they are generally somewhat enlarged and expanded, consisting of loose spongy cancellous tissue, with a thin coating of compact substance, which forms their articular surface, and is called the articular lamella.
		Where it covers the rounded ends of bones, as the extremities of the femur and humerus, it is thick at the centre, and becomes gradually thinner towards the circumference: an opposite arrangement exists where it lines the corresponding cavities.
		Ligaments are found in nearly all the moveable articulations; they consist of bands of various forms, serving to connect together the articular extremities of bones, and composed mainly of bundles of white fibrous tissue, placed parallel with, or closely interlaced with, one another, and presenting a white, shining, silvery aspect.
