The Tibia or shin bone, in human anatomy, is the larger of the two bones in the leg below the knee.
The tibia articulates with the femur and patella superiorly, the fibula laterally and with the ankle inferiorly.
The compact wall of the body is thickest at the junction of the middle and lower thirds of the bone.

The tibia, often mistranslated flute, was identical with the aulos of the Greeks, and according as it was made with a cylindrical er with a conical bore, it may be regarded as the prototype of our clarinet or oboe.

 Tibia (computer game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
However, Tibia's 2D, faux-isometric sprite graphics (which seem quaint by today's standards) and the lack of sound effects have had no detrimental effect on the steady growth rate of players in the game.
Tibia's success can also be attributed to the fact that a large portion of the game, which can be downloaded from an official website, is still playable free of charge.
Many generations of dwarven artisans and engineers have contributed to the creation of its beautiful halls and passageways, and countless mine workers have spent their lives extracting ore in order to help amassing the fabulous wealth that is hidden deep in the dwarven city.

 Individual Variability in Human Tibia Lead Concentration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Lead concentrations in nine tibiae (one tibia was excluded because some of the data were compromised) ranged from 3.1 to 27.9 µg lead/g of dry bone.
It is unlikely that the decrease in tibia lead concentration toward the ends of the tibia cross-sections is an end effect because the extremities sampled were always several centimeters away from the tibia epiphyses.
Bone lead measurements performed on a small number of tibiae showed that lead was enriched at the tibia surface relative to the core and that lead concentrations were significantly lower toward the proximal and distal ends of the dissected tibia sections.

 Fracture of the Tibia - DynoMed.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
In young people, bones often heal quickly with no lasting bad effects and mild healed fracture deformities smooth out as time passes and radiographs may not be able to detect that there had been a fracture.
Approximately 5.6 million fractures occur in the United States each year.  The time for healing of tibia fractures depend upon the age of the person and the blood supply to that part of the bone.  Surgery is frequently needed to prevent shortening and speed up healing.
The tibia is the larger inner bone of the lower leg between the knee and ankle.  A fracture of any kind may cause bleeding into tissues, which causes swelling.  If the fracture is closed (not through the skin), elevate the limb and ice the swelling for 10 minutes at a time to avoid tissue damage.

 MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Blount's disease
Blount's disease is a growth disorder of the tibia (shin bone) that causes the lower leg to angle inward, resembling a bowleg.
Surgery may involve cutting the shin bone (tibia) to realign it, and sometimes lengthen it as well.
Other times, the growth of just the outer half of the tibia can be surgically restricted to allow the child’s natural growth to reverse the bowing process.

Blount's disease is a condition of disturbed growth of the medial (inner) growth plate of the upper tibia, causing severe bowing of the leg at the knee.
No one knows the cause of the disease, although it is considered a developmental disturbance that affects just that portion of the growth plate at the knee.
If untreated, the medial portion of the growth plate at the upper tibia stops producing bone, causing asymmetrical growth at the knee and progressive bowlegs.

A progressive valgus deformity after a fracture of the proximal tibia metaphysis is not uncommon.
If after prolonged follow-up, the increased angular deformity may be corrected by partial epiphysiodesis of the proximal tibia after age 10 or by a varus osteotomy of the tibia at skeletal maturity.
They concluded that the primary etiology for tibia valga was asymmetric overgrowth secondary to a vascular response.
