Affiliations 1 University of Oklahoma College of Med. 2 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Kentucky School of Medicine Last Update: January 17, 2019. Introduction The leg is the region of the lower limb between the knee and the foot. It comprises two bones: the tibia and the fibula. The role of these two bones is to provide stability and support to the rest of the body, and through articulations with the femur and foot/ankle and the muscles attached to these bones, provide mobility and the ability to ambulate in an upright position. The tibia articulates with the femur at the knee joint. The knee joint consists of three compartments [1][2] medial tibiofemoral compartment lateral tibiofemoral compartment patellofemoral compartment At the ankle, the tibia and fibula create the articular surface for the talus. The ankle mortise is a specialized articulation providing support and optimizing motion and function through the ankle joint. A normal ankle joint ultimately optimizes and allows for physiologic mobility of the foot and its associated joints and articulations. The bones and fascia also divide the lower leg into four compartments [3][4] anterior compartment lateral compartment posterior compartment, superficial posterior compartment, deep Structure and Function The tibia is the second largest bone in the body and provides support for a significant portion of the weight-bearing forces transmitted from the rest of the body.

Page 1/12 Abstract BACKGROUND: Although several approaches have been used for the treatment of complex ankle fractures, there are still some ankle fractures which can not obtain ideal intraoperative exposure with these traditional approaches. The purpose of this study was to present an innovative bular notch approach in detail for the treatment of ankle fractures involving the distal tibial plafond and to present a series of patients with either functional or radiographic outcomes. METHODS: Between March 2015 and October 2018, 22 patients with distal tibial plafond fractures with concomitant bular and distal tibiobular syndesmosis injuries were treated through a bular notch approach. The details of the surgical technique were reviewed from the operative notes. Relevant data were reviewed from the medical records. The quality of fractures and syndesmosis reduction was examined using CT scans, and lateral stability of the ankle was assessed by physical examination and stress radiographs.

  • Lab Manual Appendicular Skele
    1 PRE-LAB EXERCISES When studying the skeletal system, the bones are often sorted into two broad categories: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. This lab focuses on the appendicular skeleton, which is formed from the pectoral and pelvic girdles and the upper and lower limbs. View Module 7.2 Axial and Appendicular Skeleton to highlight the bones of the appendicular skeleton and compare them to those of the axial skeleton. Examine Module 11.1 Appendicular Skeleton to view only the bones of the appendicular skeleton. In addition to learning about all the bones of the appendicular skeleton, it is also important to identify some significant bone markings. Bone markings can have many shapes, including holes, round or sharp projections, and shallow or deep valleys, among others. These markings on the bones serve many purposes, including forming attachments to other bones or muscles and allowing passage of a blood vessel or nerve. It is helpful to understand the meanings of some of the more common bone marking terms. Before we get started, look up the definitions of these common bone marking terms: Canal: Condyle: Facet: Fissure: Foramen: (see Module 10.18 Foramina of Skull) Fossa: Margin: Process: Proximal: Trochanter: Tubercle: Tuberosity: Throughout this exercise, you will notice bold terms. This is meant to focus your attention on these important words. Make sure you pay attention to any bold words and know how to explain their definitions and/or where they are located. Use the following modules to guide your exploration of the appendicular skeleton. As you explore these bones in Visible Body’s app, also locate the bones and bone markings on any available charts, models, or specimens.

ABSTRACT Background: In forensic analysis, the estimation of the stature is key in identification of an individual. The stature of an individual can be estimated from long bones especially the tibia and the femur as these have direct correlation to the height of an individual. The tibia is ideal in this application as it resists erosion and keeps its anatomical shape for long even after burial. Mechanical loading is especially high in the distal ends of long bones of the lower limb and as such they display significant inter-individual differences. The use of distal dimensions in estimation of the length of the tibia from skeletal remains has not been reported. Materials and methods: 150 dry and processed tibias irrespective of side, grossly normal and complete were randomly collected from a medical college of south India.

  • Morphological and Morphometrical Analysis of Fibula in Relation to Fibular Facet P
    Research Article Morphological and morphometrical analysis of fibula in relation to fibular facet P. Santhanam, Karthik Ganesh Mohanraj* ABSTRACT Introduction: The fibula bone is also known as the calf bone, which was introduced into anatomical nomenclature by Vesalius during the 16th century. Fibula is a slender lateral bone of the leg, the fibula is identified by a proximal head, with a twisted shaft and a distal lateral malleolus. The lower ends of the bone fibula and tibia form an anatomic and functional unit. In view of the widespread clinical relevance, the purpose of this study was to investigate the morphology and morphometric analysis of the human fibula bone in relation to fibular incisura within South Indian population group. Materials and Methods: In the present study, a total of 30 dry human fibula bones of unknown sex and without any gross abnormality will be collected from the Department of Anatomy, Saveetha Dental College, Chennai, for evaluation. With the help of Vernier caliper and ruler, the measurements such as the length, breadth, and diameter of the orbital cavity will be measured. The maximum orbital length and the maximal orbital breadth are measured to calculate the orbital index. The results obtained were analyzed, tabulated, and represented graphically. Results: After analyzing the data we come to know that diameter from upper and lower articulating facet seems to lie between 2 cm and 2.5 cm and height of lateral malleolus tend to be between 2.5 cm and 3 cm in the analyzed dry bone. About 50% of the bone sample contains nutrient foramen at inferior one-third, 40% contain at superior one-third, and only 10% contain nutrient foramen at the middle one-third.
