Examples of fibular

• The crest is offset from the proximal end, but connected with the anterior end of the fibular condyle by a low, rounded edge.

• A small fibular crest was obviously present on the anterolateral side of the proximal shaft, but is largely eroded away.

• It was proximally placed and connected to the anterior end of the fibular condyle by a low but shar ply defined crest.

• A well-developed fibular crest was present, but is damaged in both specimens.

• This ridge might represent a remainder of the low crest that connects the fibular crest with the proximal end in basal theropods.

• The articular facet extends from this crest laterally onto the flat proximal surface of the fibular condyle.

• Distally from the fibular crest, a nar row, slightly concave facet runs over the anterolateral surface of the shaft distally and nar rows towards its distal end.

• However, they differ from tetanurans in that the cnemial crest is less clearly offset from the fibular condyle and the fibular crest is connected to the proximal end.

• Damage to the deep fibular nerve, as is possible with traumatic injury to the lateral knee, results in foot drop.

• Pistorius was born with fibular hemimelia (congenital absence of the fibula) in both legs.

• Similarly, in the lower leg, structures near the tibia (shinbone) are tibial and structures near the fibula are fibular (or peroneal).

• Collectively the tibial and common fibular nerve makes up the general term sciatic nerve.

• The deep fibular nerve is also subject to injury resulting from lower motor neuron disease, diabetes, ischemia, and infectious or inflammatory conditions.

• The direct arm attaches to the posterior and lateral aspect of the fibular styloid.

• The most common cause is habitual leg crossing that compresses the common fibular nerve as it crosses around the head of fibula.
