The inferior tibiofibular joint, also known as the distal tibiofibular joint (tibiofibular syndesmosis), is formed by the rough, convex surface of the medial side of the distal end of the fibula, and a rough concave surface on the lateral side of the tibia. Below, to the extent of about 4 mm, these surfaces are smooth and covered with cartilage ...
The tarsus forms the lower part of the ankle joint. It transmits the entire weight of the body from the lower legs to the foot.
