That is called the proximal tibiofibular joint. The fibula does not make up any part of the knee joint. The distal (bottom) end of the fibula articulates with the tibia in a depression called the ...

The ankle syndesmosis provides integrity to the tibia and fibula and the dense syndesmosis ligaments provide the main stability to the distal tibiofibular joint. The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis ...

To determine the rate of distal tibiofibular malreduction on CT scans following syndesmotic screw placement and the effect of syndesmotic screw removal on the joint, Song and his colleagues ...

Back to Healio The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis uniquely contributes to ankle joint function by constraining the lateral articulation with the talus while its own conformation shifts throughout ...

Evidence-based recommendations on suture fixation of acute disruption of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. This involves threading a suture through a tunnel made in the bones (tibia and fibula) and ...

Syndesmotic injuries at the ankle joint are injuries to the ligaments that connect ... compression and elevation. Distal tibiofibular syndesmosis, syndesmotic injuries with persistent symptoms and all ...
