The toe bones are formed by 14 tubular bones. These represent the phalanges of the foot. They are the end phalanges of the foot and therefore connect distally to the five metatarsal bones. The individual bony elements are divided between the individual toes. All toes consist of three phalanges, except the big toe, which consists of only two phalanges. Due to this division, the phalanges are called differently. The toe elements close to the body are the phalanx proximalis. The distal phalanges are called phalanx distalis. Between these are the phalanx media. In big toes the phalanx media is missing, so it consists only of the phalanx proximalis and phalanx distalis.
