Anatomy Part of the distal tibiofibular joint. It attaches from the lateral surface of the anterior distal tibia, and travels obliquely downwards to attach to the lateral malleolus. Functions Holds the distal end of the tibiofibular joint together tightly. It is key for the skeletal framework and articulation of the foot at the ankle. Interested

Anatomy Course Continuation of the popliteal artery when it passes through the interosseous membrane to cross into the anterior leg. It then descends on the anterior side of the interosseous membrane until it reaches the distal end of the tibia and ankle. It then continues into the foot as the dorsalis pedis artery.
