Aus Dornheim Anatomy
The lower leg bones are two approximately parallel tubular bones, the fibula and the tibia. They connect the femur and the foot bones with each other. The two bones are connected by ligaments, mainly the Membrana interossea cruris and the Ligamenta tibiofibularis. The shin bone is stronger and has a jointed connection to the thigh. The tibia is located medially. Lateral is the significantly narrower fibula. In contrast to the shin bone, this has no direct contact with the femur.
