The Tibiofibular Joints are the articulations between the tibia and fibula of the leg. These joints have minimal movement but are important for stability and weight-bearing. The proximal tibiofibular joint is a synovial joint formed by the head of the fibula and the lateral condyle of the tibia.

Tibiofibular Joints PPT Summary
- The Tibiofibular Joints play a greater role in stability and weight-bearing rather than movement.
- The proximal tibiofibular joint is a synovial joint, while the distal tibiofibular joint is a fibrous joint.
- Both joints are supported by ligaments and receive arterial supply from different sources.
- Dislocation of the proximal tibiofibular joint is a rare injury that can result in complications such as nerve injury and recurrent dislocation.
- The interosseous membrane of the leg helps stabilize the tibiofibular syndesmosis.
