Fibula Head & #8211; irregular shape

Articular Face for the Tibia & #8211; flat face that articulates with the lateral tibial condyle

Distal Epiphysis

Lateral Malleolus - Distal fibular expansion

Articular Face for Talus

Body (Diaphysis)

Anterior Edge & #8211; thick and rough

Interosseous Edge & #8211; interosseous crest

Back Edge & #8211; begins at the apex and ends at the posterior edge of the lateral malleolus

Medial Face & #8211; narrow and flat. It is the interval between the anterior and interosseous borders.

Side Face & #8211; it is convex and is located between the anterior and posterior borders
