WHAT DOES FIBULAR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

fibular

Fibula

The fibula or calf bone is a leg bone located on the lateral side of the tibia, with which it is connected above and below. It is the smaller of the two bones, and, in proportion to its length, the slenderest of all the long bones. Its upper extremity is small, placed toward the back of the head of the tibia, below the level of the knee joint, and excluded from the formation of this joint. Its lower extremity inclines a little forward, so as to be on a plane anterior to that of the upper end; it projects below the tibia, and forms the lateral part of the ankle joint.

Definition of fibular in the English dictionary

The definition of fibular in the dictionary is of or relating to the outer and thinner of the two bones between the knee and ankle of the human leg. Other definition of fibular is of or relating to the corresponding bone in other vertebrates.
